    Decided to try somewhere new and take the kids fishing. This Park is HUGE!! Like you can get lost in there huge, we didn't but we could have. We picked a spot and fished for a while (5.5 hours). The kids didn't do good at first but as it got later they were catching little bluegills and turtles left and right. The hubby didn't do so well but according to what a "regular" told us, for what he is fishing for we were in the wrong spot. So we know that for next time. The park seemed really clean and nice, the people were nice as well. We will definitely come back and try again just us adults to see how we do in a different spot. Absolutely beautiful park!!

    Always a great time at Beckley Creek Park. The dog park is nice and well kept filled with regular, responsible dog owners. The playground and splash park is fun for the little ones with lots of equipment. The egg lawn is a wide open space and the trails really have something for everyone - bikers, hikers, walkers, dog walkers, kayakers, etc. The farmers markets, soccer fields, and communal garden just add to the fun. There is a nature center as well but don't know much about the offerings from there. Great parking too, tons of spots spread throughout the park.

    This is an expansive and upscale park that features all sorts of space for pavilions, running, biking, or other outdoor activities you're into. The main trail through this place goes on for miles and miles - at least 60 based on the mile markers. Great place for athletic events, as we did a half marathon here and didn't have to fight any traffic.

    Very beautiful park with lots of walking trails. I wish there were more benches along the trails for less physically fit people to stop and rest on. So far, I’ve only tried walking one of the trails. The pictures are from The Black Willow Trail. I couldn’t finish the trail that day because it was VERY hot outside and the one bench I found to rest on along the trail was a scalding hot concrete bench that would burn you if you sat on it.

    Get out of the house and into the outdoors. Enjoy the flowers blooming alone the many trails of the park system. Whether paved, gravel, or dirt, they all have something unique to offer. Whatever ability, there's a trail for you. Be sure to look at your surroundings; the park system has done a great job recreating native landscapes. and planting indigenous plants to attract the wildlife.

    Arrived early evening for some fishing. Nothing biting at all. Tried 3 different lakes. Lots of trash along the shores. Slime alge along the shores as well. Lots of hiking trails. A few ducks and song birds about. Also saw a bald eagle fly overhead.

    Great place to enjoy nature alone, as a couple, or as a family. Lots of space! You will never feel crowded! There are soccer fields, splash pad, shallow creek to wade in with shell sandbanks,, tons of picnic tables, and a lot of walking trails! It's also per friendly! I added pictures of the fountain. I didn't get a lot of pictures. I was enjoying my time unplugged most of the time. My kids can't wait to go back again!

    An amazing place, trails for all skill levels, huge open spaces for sports or to let the kids run. Kayaking access, miles of paved trails for walking or biking, several picnic areas and a huge playground and splash park.

    Amazing place! Creek watching, walking , biking, jogging trails, dog park etc. Weather just to relax, workout, picnic or just some time in the sun; this place has plenty of options. Plenty of parking areas, clean and safe place. Easy access and just an amazing natural area to enjoy perfect weather and soak the views.

    Our high energy Jasper loves the dog park here. Big dogs, small dogs, he doesn't care, just enjoys making Fido friends. Every dog owner I have met here has been friendly! And this sweet boy is exhausted (thankfully) when we get home. The park is clean, well maintained, and a safe place to let the puppers run and be, well...dogs!

    Have been coming here for a long time, great trails, everything is super well maintained, the staff are nice, the grounds are extremely nice, bathrooms clean. One of the best parks in Louisville by far, one of the few parks with very long trails.

    After searching for the perfect place to take outdoor family photos, through a search I came across this park. The scenery is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. There are so many areas to walk, explore, or take photos with the beautiful wooded background.

    This is a beautiful park that provides trails for walking, ponds for fishing, and even an area for kids to play.

  • 5/5 Elijah B. 1 year ago on Google
    Louisville is so lucky to have this park system! My favorite park in the whole state. Beautiful, safe, and big enough to ride a full day in!

    Early morning walk was exhilarating. Lots to see, with grasses, water birds, flowers, ponds and woods.

  • 5/5 Karley H. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the family favorites! We go here all the time to enjoy the playground, splash pad, & easy trails. The playground is mostly for bigger kids with the exception of the area designated for the littles. Beware of the weekdays, it seems like we always land there at the same time as the field trips! We love the small trail behind the playground. Perfect for the kids with multiple access points to the creek.

    What a delightful and incredible Shangri-la! There is something for everyone!!!! No exaggeration. It may be a bit far out, but it is worth the drive. This is truly one of the nicest places in our state!
