Walking & Biking Trails
Ready to stretch your legs and wondering the best places to walk or ride a bike in Overland Park?
Parks & Playgrounds
Sometimes you just need fresh air, space to run, and a change of scenery. The parks and playgrounds in Overland Park deliver all of that and more!
Did you know Overland Park is home to more than 80 parks and open spaces covering nearly 1,000 acres? That’s more land than Central Park in New York City!
Each place has its own charm, from shaded, paved trails perfect for walks to wide-open playing fields just waiting for a family soccer game or kite flying.
These aren’t your average neighborhood parks. You’ll find fishing ponds, skate parks, basketball, tennis, and pickleball courts, plus stroller and bike-friendly paths that keep kids (and parents) active in every season.
When summer heats up, head to the splash pads at Thompson Park, Roe Park, or Sapling Grove Park. These easily accessible play zones are made for giggles and hours of (free) fun.
Overland Park parks are built with variety in mind, so it’s easy to find something that clicks for everyone in the family.
