Kenney Park

Tourist attraction โ€ข City park

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ A perfect place for a solitary walk along the Olentangy River. Access to the trail is directly behind the baseball backstop. The trail is pretty narrow and sandy. There are areas with roots and rocks, and the sand can make the trail a little slippery. But for those comfortable with a little more rug...

    A perfect place for a solitary walk along the Olentangy River. Access to the trail is directly behind the baseball backstop. The trail is pretty narrow and sandy. There are areas with roots and rocks, and the sand can make the trail a little slippery. But for those comfortable with a little more rugged trail, the trail offers gorgeous views of, as well as easy access to, the river.

    Nice open sports field west of Kroger in Graceland has been converted to Graceland Flats apts. No paved walking trails. There are walking trails through the woods that lead down to the river. Amazing old trees. Advisable to use bug repellent and long pants. Did pick up poison ivy somehow.

    Google maps calls it Delawanda Park but the Columbus Recreation and Parks calls it Kenney Park. I kept wondering where Delawnda Park ended and where Kenney Park started. a great Columbus nature blogger has a lot of posts about his life with the Olentangy River practically at his door in north Columbus...Tom Arbour who writes The Ohio Nature Blog would refer to the park as Kenney Park. The City of Columbus site says of Kenney Park: "Also known as Delawanda Park." Delawanda Park is the alias!

    Not really park. It is two baseball diamonds and a soccer field. There are several openings along the treeline that lead to trails that go along the river.

    Nearby urban sled hill. Great for kids. Lots of hill space, not steep.

    Needs a playground. And the paths are not kept up

  • 5/5 Tess F. 5 years ago on Google
    Quiet, clean and beautiful. Good for a brief walk. We got to watch deer at dusk.

  • 3/5 Hemant K. 6 years ago on Google
    Nice and calm place to visit for a walk, it has a trail of Olentangy river behind it. A soccer stadium, for kids I guess. Big parking lot . But when I went there, only one car was parked and its a little isolated so, I will say don't go alone

  • 5/5 James T. 6 years ago on Google
    I ride around it

  • 4/5 Kasper J. 6 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Rudi C. 7 years ago on Google
    Nice quiet fields. If you get a good parking spot, you can watch from the car. Three ingress portals here. Two pokestops and one pokegym.

  • 3/5 Justin H. 1 year ago on Google
    The parking got better, but the sledding hill was demolished to make way for some apartments. The long march of progress I guess. The forest is nice to walk through however.

  • 4/5 Jody D. 2 years ago on Google
    This neighborhood park is much improved with designated parking including handicap accessible parking spaces.

  • 5/5 Terry G. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice park. Great play field.

  • 4/5 Roger D. 1 year ago on Google
    A well maintained park that has soccer fields, a baseball diamond and a sledding hill. Parking area is small, and the only other amenity is a portable restroom. Also there is a nature preserve that sometimes overlaps with the park. If you're in the woods, on a trail and alongside the Olentangy River there is a very good chance that you are now in the nature preserve. It really doesn't matter except that it can be confusing if you're looking for one and not the other.

    Great open field park with a baseball diamond, open field, and little trails that will take you to the river.

  • 5/5 Peter H. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this park. We live close by and it is great for a short walk with the dog and for sledding. We can hit Kroger or Target on the way out and not take hours out of my day.

    It's a hidden gem for training a puppy. Loved it before and still have a good time there. Just now have apartments behind you

    Lovely little hidden park behind Graceland Shopping Center.

  • 5/5 Bret T. 3 years ago on Google
    First off its behind the gym so no clue it was here. Filers in front for soccer or baseball. The amazing thin is the woods behind those. Great paths and a river. Makes for interesting sights of wildlife and fun of its your dog and you

    Parking lot for the park has moved to behind LA Fitness. Has a soccer field and short wooded trails near the Olentangy River.

  • 5/5 James Collinsworth J. 5 years ago on Google
    Great park for kick ball or soccer. Also the woods around it are fun to explore. Weird parking it's all the way in the back of graceland shopping center like way back there.

  • 5/5 emily t. 4 years ago on Google
    Completely and utterly hidden, as well as being completely two utter different types of places at the same time. Also, there ARE trails into the woods, unlike what a previous review states.
