Dave Olseth Memorial Skatepark

A 22,000-square-foot Dreamland Skateparks concrete facility in Whitefish's Armory Park, expanded in 2023 with a dedicated 6,900-square-foot beginner area and street course featuring wide-open sightlines separated from its deep bowls and spine.

Set inside Armory Park on the east side of Whitefish with adjacent restrooms, a water fountain, and open athletic fields, Dave Olseth Memorial Skatepark (often called Whitefish Skatepark) was originally built by Dreamland Skateparks in 2005 and expanded by Dreamland and the nonprofit Whitefish Skatepark Association in September 2023 to roughly 22,000 to 23,000 square feet of poured concrete. That Phase 2 expansion was specifically designed to add 6,900 square feet of beginner terrain and street features with wide-open spacing and clear sightlines, allowing older skaters returning to a board to spread out and warm up away from the high-speed lines of the original bowls.

Start in the expanded street and beginner wing—working across the open flatground, curbs, manual pad, low ledges, flat rail, banks, and mini-ramp—before testing the London gap, stairs, handrail, wallride, or the original Dreamland transition end with its open bowls and transfer spine. Keep several local caveats in mind: the park is an unlit daylight-only facility, the expanded layout permits scooters and bikes alongside skateboards and inline skates, and the City of Whitefish runs its annual month-long Sk8fish youth skate camp here during the summer—making early weekday mornings outside camp hours or early-autumn afternoons the calmest windows in the Flathead Valley.
