Ashland Park, Clarksville
Bruce K.

Just downriver from the Falls of the Ohio State Park, this park also borders the Ohio and has a great view of the Louisville skyline. Greener than the other, shadier than the other, with more playground and picnic tables than the other, this is a really nice spot. Though maybe not as historic and Ashland also doesn't have the Interpretive Center. Still, it's a playground and it has a lovely view. There is dedicated free parking here.

1800s railroad bridge still in use.

Located in Clarksville, IN however, yet another great addition to the vast Louisville Metro Park system. While not controlled by Metro proper Southern Indiana has many great parks that compliment the world renowned parks in Louisville. 2 snaps up in a circle for this gem!

Stunning view of downtown Louisville.

Ashland Park doesn't seem to be much, but man, it makes for the perfect view of the Louisville skyline. I was on my way to the Falls of Ohio when I saw the sign for Ashland, and had to stop and explore. It leads right down to the river bank, also with a sidewalk that'll take you over to the Falls. The grassy space with a gorgeous view looks perfect for a picnic, or just for some time for relaxation. I'd even say it's perfect for tourists! (Not to mention free ;)

Ashland Park is the go to for many photographers and news media wanting a shot of The Louisville Skyline.

A beautiful park located on The Ohio River in Clarksville. Its a favorite location for photographers and videographers. Ashland Park has a playground for the kids as well as restrooms. It's an excellent spot for watching the sunset!

Lake front views at the local park…read more A stunning view at every turn. This park truly offers it all. It has a huge lake in the middle of it. A walking path surrounds this lake. The natural beauty of nature makes this place beautiful. Birds chirp and nature grows all around one. While it could use a few more trees maybe they have been cut back for the human to enjoy more time without encroaching on the wildlife of the park. The ducks and geese have made this park their space too. This park is the largest in New Albany with fifteen acres. It's surrounded by a lake called Kiwanis. It's located on with its main gate on Grant Line Road. You can watch nature come to life. In the park area the new fire people train to fight fires. They have a dedicated area to our fallen soldiers of prior wars. As you walk the path around the lake the New Albany library has sponsored some themes to get the kids inspired and tell stories about the local water foul that call this nature park their home. Come and see what nature does and how she speaks to you .

Sam Peden Community Park is a good-sized park that needs more trees…read more There's lots to love about Community Park. The walking path is long and well-kept. If you need an easy path, there's the loop around the large duck and goose pond. If you want something a little more challenging, the path leading back to the 4H Fair Grounds has a decent elevation and optional stairs. There are multiple playgrounds for kids and a few areas for sports and games. Nearby are also shelters that can be reserved for events. Parking is plentiful and in multiple spots. There is also a growing effort to install more public art, a reading path, and some free-range meadow grasses. I'm hopeful that the trees grow back after the building of the Academy apartments and that more are planted around the path to provide more shade during the hot summer months. But a great, local park!
