Things to do at Al Jurf Family Park
دع الاطفال يلعبون
The children’s playground is divided by age group, so toddlers and older kids each have their own space with swings, slides and climbing frames. Parents can sit nearby on the benches and lawns while keeping an eye on everyone.
Walk, jog or cycle
Dedicated walking and jogging tracks loop around the green areas, and a separate cycling track keeps bikes away from people on foot. Evenings in the cooler months are the most popular time for a family walk or a light run.
Play volleyball, basketball or tennis
The park has volleyball, basketball and tennis courts. They work on a first come, first served basis, so arrive early on weekends if your group wants a game.
Enjoy a picnic or BBQ
Picnic lawns, tables and designated BBQ areas make Al Jurf Family Park a favourite weekend spot for families and groups of friends. Bring your own food, grill and charcoal, and plan to arrive early on Fridays, Saturdays and public holidays as the best spots fill quickly.
المرافق المتوفرة في الموقع

Is Al Jurf Family Park right for you?
Al Jurf Family Park is perfect if you want a relaxed, free outdoor day with green space, play areas, sports courts and a BBQ. It is a neighbourhood park, not a theme park, so it does not have big rides, slides or water attractions. On very hot summer days, an indoor play area in one of Ajman’s malls may suit young children better.
