Challenge Course and More

The 16th Street Park in Port Huron has a new installation of play equipment. The equipment is intended for ages 13 and up and includes a challenge course, swings, and a very unique climbing structure made of rope. Preteens and adults could definitely also enjoy the park.

App-based Timing System

There is a downloadable app to track progress on the course. Information can be found on signs at the park.

Many Play Options

The whole park is huge and has baseball fields, a basketball court, pickleball courts, and a gated wiffle ball field. There is also a large artificial turf area near the playground that is perfect for soccer, along with a 40-yard dash lane and a bike trail.

This park is definitely worth a visit if you have kids ages 10 and up. Adults can even enjoy the challenge course.

The park is located on 16th Street near Dove. The park was recently renovated with funding from being designated a 2024 Project Play Champion by the Aspen Institute. The “free play” park is expected to have renovations completed this fall.
