Things to do in Central Indiana-Holiday Park


I just recently rediscovered this park (thanks to my wonderful husband) and it is such a great park. Holiday Park is located at 64th and Springmill on the north side of Indy. It has a Nature/Resource Center with a small outdoor amphitheatre where free concerts are held during the summer. A fabulous playground for kids with a rock climbing wall, 10-20' slides as well as a "spiderweb" to climb. A picnic area is located adjacent to the playground making it a perfect place for family get-togethers. We just made use of it on Memorial day weekend and everyone enjoyed it. There were trees for shade, plenty of picnic tables and all the kids loved the play ground but to us the best part of the park are the trails. There are 3.5 miles of trails that run right along the White River. We've been a couple of times now with our dog, Mac and we've all loved it. It is beautiful, shady, there are little areas where the river comes in that you can wade in if you feel like cooling off (Mac's favorite thing!) They have some cool classes during the summer too. My husband is hoping to do the fly fishing class. Check out Holiday Park, I think you'll really like it!
