The playground area is well-shaded by trees, offering protection from the sun. This feature sets Danny Kendrick Park West apart from many other playgrounds in the area.

In addition to the playground, the park offers access to the Ralston Creek Trail, providing opportunities for walking, jogging, or biking. The proximity to Ralston Creek adds a natural element to the park, though visitors with young children should be cautious as some edges of the creek can be steep.
