Old Poway Park

Anatoly Petkov

Decent place for a BBQ or a small gathering. You can book a spot in advance to make sure you'll have the space when you get there. It's not really much of a park but there's enough space to set up a party and for kids to run around. There are public bathrooms, and they're fairly well maintained.

This is a nice park with historical information about the railroad and homes buibuilt in the early 1900s. It also displays history from the late 1890s. There are really good local eats. They have a farmers market every Saturday. There is also a small veterans park that honors the local veterans.

A gem of history in North County SD! The docents of the historical buildings are generous with their time and knowledge. The train engineers started a little over time and let us go for a ride just before 1pm shut down time. The reenactment we attended was thorough about life in mid-1800s wild west. A fascinating visit, we will sure to return to! If we lived closer than Oceanside, we might volunteer to be train engineers!

Old Poway Park is located in Old Poway just outside of San Diego city limits. The park has restrooms, picnic tables and fire pits. Restrooms are located in the park and behind the Hamburger Factory. There is also an old museum connected to the Hamburger Factory on the back side. The Train does a couple loops on each trip with an extra loop on your birthday. Stroll along the meandering pathways or enjoy a peaceful picnic in our beautiful park. Weekends offer the opportunity to take a ride around the park on the Poway Midland Railroad. Visitors can also tour the Heritage Museum to learn about Poway's unique history and explore the Nelson House to witness what life was like in early 20th century California. Find local and organic produce and artisan foods at our Saturday morning Farmers Market and discover unique handmade treasures made by local artists at our seasonal Boardwalk Craft Market. *The Poway Midland Railroad, Heritage Museum and Nelson House are open on weekends only.
