Kiroli Park is one of Louisiana’s most beloved parks, and for good reason. The 150-acre park in West Monroe truly has something for everyone, including one of the most unique playgrounds in Louisiana. There are actually a few specialty playgrounds here, but this particular circus-themed playground is fun for all age groups.
With perfectly manicured gardens, tennis courts, fishing ponds, a dog park, and endless hiking trails, it’s no wonder why folks love Kiroli Park.
