About GRAND MENARD PICNIC AREA
This large, open picnic area is a great place to spend time with the family or throw a family reunion. Located near the historic Remount Depot and Ninemile Visitor Center, its a great place to walk the self-guided nature trail, or just sit and relax under the shade of a large ponderosa pine tree after your tour at the ranger station. The site features large picnic tables and grills, fire pits, a volleyball court, and lots of room to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
