Construction will affect Franke Park Sledding Hill
Fort Wayne, Ind –When the snow calls to the young and young at heart, Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation has information and suggestions to enhance your outdoor winter fun.
The Franke Park Sledding Hill, located at 3411 Sherman Blvd. and beyond the BMX track is a multi-generational favorite. However, a portion of the hill on the western slope will be closed in the 2023-2024 winter season due to the Franke Park Renaissance construction. Sledding on the hill is still open, but part of the hill is restricted. Please respect the fenced areas for the safety of all. The hill near the Foellinger Theatre is also available and near to parking.
