What I liked most about it…read morewas that it has natural (unpaved) trails, if you exclude Forest Park Drive which is closed to traffic. And the trails were lined with beautiful tall trees providing gorgeous shade. For parking, there's a huge lot behind the carousel on the other side of Woodhaven Boulevard, and it's a quick, easy walk to the park entrance down a gentle slope. The trails are not wheelchair accessible but Forest Park Drive is. I'm grateful for the maintenance of this green space.

So I'm starting out by praising the park as a concert venue to make up for my gripes about Central Park and PNC Bank Arts Center. I enjoyed the free De La Soul show here, which had good sound quality and a pleasant setup where you could opt for a close-up viewing of Eye Know and Me Myself and I or just roam around and still hear it. I wish I remembered who had the Yelp reviews that mostly focused on bathrooms, but park regulars know about the bathroom sort of near the LIRR train. It's not as glamorous or as clean as Bryant Park but it's mostly ok and open later than one might expect. The park isn't offering a wilderness facsimile like parts of Prospect Park but you can see birds and there are nice plants. The Unisphere is legendary.

There is always something to do year round. In the winter months, most people decide to venture to the aquatic center/skate rink or the Al Oeter Rec center.

Elmhurst Park is such a beautiful little gem in Queens! I really enjoy coming here, especially…read morebecause it truly represents what makes Queens so special the diversity. On any given day, you can see people from so many different cultures and backgrounds coming together, spending time with their families, having picnics, celebrating birthdays and special occasions, exercising, or simply enjoying the outdoors. I absolutely love seeing that. The park has plenty of green space, walking paths, a great playground for kids, benches, and areas where you can just sit and relax. One of my favorite things is simply watching the community enjoy the space. It's such a beautiful reminder of how multicultural Queens really is. Definitely a nice neighborhood park to visit if you want some fresh air, a walk, family time, or just a peaceful moment outside.

The much larger western side has all of the sports fields, courts, playgrounds, facilities, and plenty of seating areas. It's always busy no matter the weather or time of day, with everything from afterschool sports to dog meet-ups to people jogging. The main seating area (above the baseball fields) includes a 9/11 memorial, and on a clear day, you can get a view of the Empire State Building. The smaller eastern section is the quieter, "no active sports" area. It has more trees and a few benches, making it a peaceful spot to sit and relax. There is a walking path that circles and winds through the entirety of Juniper Valley. The outer path on the perimeter is about a mile and a half and makes for a great place to walk or run without having to dodge cars. It's also pretty scenic, with many beautiful brick homes lining the park.

The road to get here is narrow but conveniently right next to the playground. There are a few picnic tables and often lots of grilling by families. The playground is next to the lake. And the lake has alot of ducks and turtles. We had fun feeding them with some bread we brought with us. Most of the playground area is padded which is nice. There are separate areas for swings, a small area for the sprinklers during hot days and plenty of benches to sit. Next to the playground is more flat, green areas. Perfect for picnics and hanging out.
