4 Ideas for Family Fun at Purgatory Creek Park

  1. Take a Family Bike Ride. The loop inside the park is 2 1/2 miles long and it connects to the 6-mile Purgatory Creek Trail, which connects and cirles Purgatory Creek and Staring Lake Park. If you are looking for a playground, which this park does not have, you could stop off at Staring Lake Park during your bike ride.
  2. Hike the Loop. We have a lot of beautiful parks in the Twin Cities, but Purgatory Creek rivals the best. The loop will take you through formal gardens, prairies and wetlands as well as the beautiful veterans memorial and water fountain.
  3. Pack a Picnic. There are so many beautiful places to spread a blanket at this park.
  4. View the Public Art.

Public Art at Purgatory Creek Park

While visiting, families may want to seek out the beautiful Veterans Memorial and enjoy the large fountain, both of which are permanent fixtures of the park. Purgatory Creek has also participated in Eden Prairie’s rotating art program, intended to foster an appreciation of public art and add to the beauty of the space with temporary sculpture installations.

Birthday Parties in the Pavilion

The pavilion is available to rent by Eden Prairie Residents from April through October. It holds up to 75 people. The pavilion’s amenities include 10 large picnic tables, electricity, restrooms. Parking is limited. It looks over a fountain and is surrounded by gardens and wetlands. Book for a whole day or half day.
