Belles' Play Garden

4250 River's Edge Parkway next to River's Edge Pavillion

Belles' Play Garden at River's Edge features a series of Missouri River-inspired play and educational elements, interpretive seating and surface textures, and rich native plantings. 

Its focal point is a 15-foot-tall pelican play feature with climbing structures, a slide, intimate enclosures, and a lookout perch with sweeping views of the Omaha skyline and Missouri River banks.
