The Lafayette Community Park, located at 480 St. Marys Rd. in Lafayette is home to one of the great tree swings in all of Lamorinda. The tree you see above is really quite massive, and if you look really closely at the photo above you may be able to spot a kid enjoying a swing ride. Take a look at a close-up below for a better look. Suspended high up in the air on a solid branch, the simple wooden slat for sitting allows one to hang on while swinging like Tarzan.
When you enter the park there are a couple of small playgrounds which are quite interesting as well. To get to the swing you’ll need to take a walk around the baseball field at left up a hundred meters or so until you reach the swing. Who has been to this swing before? Is this the coolest tree swing or what?!
