Hampden Run Playground Logistics

Address: 3501 S Uravan St, Aurora, CO 80013

Bathroom: No. There are some restaurant options close by or a Safeway at the corner of E Hampden Ave and S Tower Road if you need a rest stop.

Shade: Some. There are some shade trees to sit under and also trees that provide shade over the musical instruments (see below).

Age Recommendations: 2+, however I would not recommend the large structure for any younger than 5 years old. If you have younger children, they will enjoy the swings, ramp structure and musical elements.

Swings: Yes, there is 1 traditional swing, 1 disc net swing and 1 baby swing.

Water Features: None.

Unique Features of Hampden Run Playground

All I can say is Wow! You will see the large play structure as you pull up and it is worth the trip. We love that it provides challenges that kids won’t find at typical playgrounds. Check out the discs they climb through and hexagonal obstacles!

Did you know there’s another brand new playground in Aurora?! Get the details here!

The musical section of this new playground in Aurora is fantastic! It has large chimes, flower shaped chimes and a xylophone with color coded music book. My daughter is now asking about learning to play the piano because she liked it so much!

Lastly, a wavy sidewalk surrounds the playground. This is a perfect park for a new strider or bike rider to try out their skills!

We are always looking for new playgrounds to visit so if we haven’t reviewed your favorite, shout it out in the comments below!
