Splash pads in Scranton, Pennsylvania

Nay Aug Park is Scranton's crown jewel — a 175-acre Olmsted-influenced park with a gorge, a treehouse, and yes, a splash pad. Ground jets and a couple of taller features on a rubber-mat deck near the playground and outdoor pool. Free parking on Arthur Ave, restrooms at the pool building, and the David Wenzel Treehouse (handicap-accessible canopy walk) is a must-do nearby. Northeast Pennsylvania humidity gets thick in late July but the Lackawanna Valley breeze and elevation help. Pair with a stop at Coney Island Lunch downtown for a Texas Wiener — Scranton's signature. Open roughly Memorial Day through Labor Day, 11am-7pm typically.
