Best for: Playground fun and lots of exploring
Why families love it
Located in the City of Erie, Frontier Park is full of hidden gems for families to discover. Kids will love the large playground and the amazing 40-foot-long slides, but there’s so much more to explore — from climbing trees and walking the trails to splashing in the creek and finding the park’s labyrinth. With over 1,000 trees and plenty of space to roam, it’s a great spot to spend a full afternoon outdoors.
