I wish we could have gone on the trains but it is still pretty cool. My daughter really liked it. It is clean and well kept. The best part is it is just a short drive from the Zoo and right across the parking lot from the gardens. If you're looking for something quick to do while in Omaha you... More

Our family loves to go up the hill to Kenefick Park. There are two large trains there to see and a fun view.

Doesn't sound that exciting, but hubby wanted to see them and it was awesome! Short path up to the trains, beautiful area, and the trains--they're so big! You can do this in 30 minutes, and it's easy to access off of I-80.
