Mission Valley YMCA
Krause Family Skate & Bike Park
Mission Valley YMCA & Krause Family Skate and Bike Park, also known as "Clairemont Skatepark," is home to the first permanent track in the world and several professional athletes. The skate park is a 60,000 sq. ft. facility with various ramps for all skill levels. We have a beginner course, a brand new remodeled street course, a BMX course, a 4-foot mini-ramp with a spine, a Dew-Tour vert ramp, a concrete pool and a skatercross skateboard racing track. At this park, professional skater, Andy Macdonald, built the nation’s only skatercross course in San Diego — something he had been planning for 15 years! This park is open and available for people of all ages and skills to enjoy. Pad up and get on over to the park!
