Park along the perimeter. Should be easy if you go weekend mornings. Remember that you'll climb a hill here no matter where you park.

Alta Plaza Park has a structure for every age and views for mom and dad. The playground is nicely enclosed at the peak of the park, and there is legitimately a structure for every age: young ones, average age, bigger kiddos. I rated it a 4 because the ground could use a patching or a reno.  Parking here seems doable, especially around the perimeter of the park or local, and if you go early in the mornings, it should be easy. The playground is worth the drive here, and you’re quite close to Lafayette Park, another excellent playground.
