Skateboarding Paradise

At the heart of Dike West Park sits Fargo's largest and most popular skate park - a 23,000 square foot concrete playground that's become a local institution. The smoothly formed concrete creates a great canvas for skaters, rollerbladers, and bikers to do their thing.

Whether you're just finding your balance or pulling off advanced tricks, there's something here for everyone. The design includes various elements for enthusiasts of different styles to practice and improve their techniques.

Recreational Amenities

Not into skating? No problem. The park also features basketball courts for when you're in the mood to shoot some hoops. One of the nicest aspects of Dike West is its location right next to the Red River, giving you those peaceful water views that provide a wonderful backdrop to your activities.

Walking and Dog-Friendly Areas

If you're looking for a place to clear your head with a walk, Dike West has clean, well-maintained paths suitable for both casual strolls and more vigorous exercise sessions.

Dog parents will find this park particularly accommodating. The open spaces and walking paths make it an ideal spot to let your four-legged friend stretch their legs while you both enjoy the natural surroundings.

Family-Friendly Environment

Families will find plenty of space for kids to run around, explore, and burn off energy.
