Best Playgrounds – Outdoor

By Moscowliving
Moscow is very child friendly and this is visible by the the many, very creative playgrounds throughout the city. Because it's not always clear where they are, we asked our friends which playgrounds they like best. Here we share them with you per neighborhood and we also tell you where to get a drink or a bite along the way.

GARDEN RING AREA

Delegatsky park (age 1-16)

This new playground is heaven for kids as it has a lot of different options, from football courts, to climbing, sliding and a cable track. In the winter they will make it into a great winter playground, so bring your sledge!

Location: Delegatskaya Ulitsa, Delegatsky park, close to Hermitage garden

Cafes: "Da Pino" Italian restaurant with kids masterclasses, playroom and animators

Hermitage Garden (age 1-5)

This park has the perfect downtown location, close to Patriarchy Pond and Tealtranya. Therefore options are limitless when it comes to nearby cafe's and restaurants. The playground is nice for the really young ones, up to age 6 and it also has a kids theatre. In winter there's an ice rink and throughout the year there are many activities&festivals.

Location: Ulitsa Karetnyy Ryad 3

Cafes: Teatralnya area or Veranda 32.0 inside the park

… we have a small favor to ask.
