R Park
What is R Park?
A Park for the People
As Teton County’s first nonprofit-run park, R Park is our community’s values in action. Open to all, what once was a gravel pit is now a place where kids can learn to fish, identify birds, or scramble along Mama Mimi’s outstretched legs. We host several events there each year, as do other community organizations, giving everyone a reason to love R Park. Thanks to a prime location along the community pathway and START bus line, R Park provides accessible connection to nature in the heart of the valley.
