About the Venue

Highland Road Community Park Splash Pad is a free BREC splash pad inside one of Baton Rouge's larger community parks. It makes an easy warm-weather stop for families who want simple spray play paired with a playground, walking paths, and other park amenities. Because it sits within a much larger park, it works especially well for mixed-interest outings rather than a splash-only destination.
