Freedom Park

We’ve been going to freedom Park for over a decade. It is our favorite park in Charlotte when we’re visiting our grandparents. We love the athletic course that was funded by the Carolina Panthers. Every time we’re there, I have to time my youngest to see how fast she can finish it. The park is well kept and beautiful. There is a nice bathroom in the center that is usually clean. There’s a cool looking locomotive and a fun playground for younger kids. There’s also ample space for picnics, volleyball, soccer, and just playing around with your dogs. When my wife joins us, we just enjoy walking around the lake and taking pictures. I highly recommend it!

This gem of Charlotte is one of my favorite places to take a walk. A place that fills my affection for mankind. The ambiance of sharing a walk with your neighbors, the ducks, and the fresh air and turquoise water is revitalizing. Parking can be challenging but I've never not found a spot. Dog friendly, kid friendly, family friendly spot. You can find all walks or life here coexisting in blissful harmony

What a beautiful park. It reminds me of my hometown park where I used to go. It has gentle walking paths. I have ankle problems but didn't struggle at this path. I fully enjoyed the landscape. There is a big playground as well. Also has many benches& shady areas. I highly recommend this park :)

Freedom Park feels like Charlotte’s version of Central Park! This 98-acre gem features a 7-acre lake (Duck Pond), paved trails, sports courts, playgrounds, and a historic steam locomotive. Great for jogging, picnics, family time, or the annual Festival in the Park each September. Access the Little Sugar Creek Greenway from here. Clean, welcoming, and full of activity great for a good reading.

This is a beautiful park. It's great for walking by yourself or with your dogs. They also have playgrounds for children to play on. It also seems like a popular spot to fish because when I was there, there were multiple people fishing. The nature museum that it connects to is closed to construction. I was upset that I didn't get to visit it while I was in town. But I'm hoping next time I will be able to.

The park presents an awesome view of the lake (or pond... unsure, honestly). The loop that leads around takes you to a wonderful park for kids to play at. Just beyond the train lies a youth football park sponsored by the Carolina Panthers. It was great getting to see all of this and still have more to see!

Beautiful park with an amphitheatre, plenty of benches to sit by the man made 7 acres pond and watch the ducks and people stroll. There's picnic tables and grills also if you choose to make a day of it. There are trails to walk and a playground for the children.

A beautiful park! We spent the afternoon here with our dog and really enjoyed ourselves. The pond is beautiful to take your chairs and a picnic and sit. There were tons of families enjoying the day.
