Eben G. Fine Park is hidden, but well worth seeking out. It is one of Boulder's largest parks so the good location and grand size means there is something for everyone to do during a visit. Eben G. Fine Park is located just off Arapahoe Avenue, where historic downtown Boulder meets the foothills, and the many hiking and biking paths lead right up into the mountains. Boulder Creek runs through the park making it great for fishing, tubing, and kayaking. For the youngest children there's even two small playgrounds with sandboxes. The park is surrounded by trees, making it seem totally isolated, and also one of the most beautiful and serene places to enjoy a day in Boulder. -Sabrina Zirakzadeh
