Best park in the city . I live right behind it, so I drive by there daily. Everyone is always having a good time there. Nice trails , safe environment. Fun fun fun.

Traveling to Shelby Farms via The Green Line is so beautiful and peaceful . I love taking my dog to the no-leash dog park and be sure to look for an Italian Ice van by the playground , it's delicious!

One of the largest & most well-kept city parks . Movie nights on the lawn are a must, and if you have a well-behaved dog friend , make sure to visit the dog park here... It is absolutely fantastic!
