With 73 acres, Brooklyn Park Central Park is one of the city’s largest community parks – big enough to encompass Brookland Golf Course. Because it is in a central location, it has become a recreational hub for Brooklyn Park. Family friendly amenities include a large playground area, sports courts and fields and a nine-hole disc golf course. There is over a mile of walking trails within the park. In the summer, the park hosts Movies in the Park and a National Night Out kickoff.  This park has off street parking and indoor restrooms.
