This list of parks in Indianapolis provides a general overview of parkland in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States.
Most parks are managed by the city’s Department of Parks and Recreation, also known as Indy Parks. In 2020, there were 212 city parks,[1] four state-owned parks, and numerous privately-managed parks, plazas, gardens, and nature preserves.
Indianapolis’s 212 municipal parks cover 11,258 acres (4,556 ha) and feature some 129 playgrounds, 155 sports fields, 153 miles (246 km) of recreational trails, 23 recreation and nature centers, 21 spraygrounds, 19 aquatic centers, 13 golf courses, and four dog parks.[1]
Indy Parks operates several standalone recreational facilities, including Kuntz Memorial Soccer Stadium and the Major Taylor Velodrome.
