Most McDonough playgrounds built in the last decade sit in open sun, which matters when you're planning a summer outing. The parks listed here pair playground time with shaded or tree-lined walking trails—the kind where a parent or older sibling can actually move while younger kids climb, and where the walk itself stays bearable in afternoon heat. Heritage Park's network of nature trails is the most extensive, but quieter neighborhood parks offer their own trail loops if you want less crowded afternoons.
