    This started as a mission to find a Hash (expat international) group meetup somewhere in this vast…read morepark, but since we didn't connect it turned out to be a "walk in the park" and pure joy. Central Park may be in a more convenient location for tourists, but Prospect Park is a divine place to explore, with plenty of twists and turns, and what the heck is that? Lots to look at! The other thing I liked was that we found free on-street parking right across the street on Ocean Avenue. Amazingly we also found parking right by Central Park as well. (This trip was a superb driving one) Even hanging out in the van, having a cold one at the parking spot was a fun experience. There's even a cafe in the middle of the park that is super nice! Worth seeking out when visiting Brooklyn.

    One of my favorite things about Brooklyn is Prospect Park. Even though it's large, as you can…read moreimagine it gets busy on the weekends. Lots of families, etc. Still, it can be an enjoyable time. I do prefer weekday visits myself. The walking/bike paths are a great way to see the park in its entirety. Plenty of green space for a picnic, playing frisbee, etc. Playground and splash pads as well. Of course, I can't forget the lake with all of the ducks splashing about. It's really a wonderful way to spend a day in Brooklyn, getting away from it all.

    I learned to ride a bike at this park. Many fun childhood memories rolling down the big hill and…read moreplaying in the snow or autumn leaves. Great amenities and a skate park was added. The park also features beautiful views of the Narrows. It's one of my favorite places to catch sunset views. Only downside is the stench that emanates from the wastewater treatment plant nearby (since 1952). FYI, for those interested, you can enter a lottery to tour the wastewater treatment plant! Owl's Head Park has a rich and interesting history. You can read more about it here: https://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/owls-head-park/history If you ever find yourself in this quiet part of Bay Ridge, it's definitely worth a visit.

    I've been to this park on several occasions--most of which came when I didn't live in the area, but…read morenow that I live just a few blocks away, I've only been here two or three times. Nonetheless, my daughter wanted to have some friends/family celebrate her birthday here. The park is a decent size park, where a lot of people have set-ups for birthdays. A short distance away, they have a play area for the children to do their thing. If you walk up a bit, you can get some nice anemic photos toward the water, during this part of the season, you may spot a cherry blossom tree, or two. Overall, it's a wonderful family oriented park. I'd say if you have children, a dog, a mate who enjoys walking, a couple friends who want a picnic and/or some quiet time, this park would definitely suit your needs!

    What a lovely park that boast four different themed play areas for kids. Walked by this park a few…read moretimes and didn't even realize how big this place is. Soon as you enter the main gate there are benches and grass area to sit. Walking pathways are kind of narrow and shared with kids riding their bikes and scooters. A small baseball field in the center of this park makes for great outdoor activities for anyone. The four playgrounds are the best kept secret of this park. There are lots of slides for kiddies to older children and all play areas are newly constructed, colorful, and sturdy. Kids will have fun running up and down all of the areas. It is a predominantly Othrodox neighborhood, everyone minded their own business and continued playing. Park is kept clean and very well maintained. One of the nicest parks in Brooklyn.

    This is specifically a review of the playground. I have not seen the rest of the park…read more A unique playground feel with very large rocks built into the play apparatus. Brave little kids can rock climb up to the slide and little babies and kids alike can crawl and run under the rock arch. There are some nice trees around, making leaf gathering a fun task for little ones. Includes slides of varying levels and lots of challenging things to climb on and jump to. If you live in the area or going to be in the area and want a playground your kids will really delight in, give it a visit. If you are faint of heart and can't imagine your kids walking across a rock (maybe 8 feet up) - skip this one
