Kelvingrove Park

This is a massive park, excellent for long dog walks where they can be off lead enjoying plenty of grass. There are a lot of memorial benches and statues to see; the park is beautiful and peaceful. There are some steep gradients but you can stay low if you want to; there are some stunning views of nearby buildings if you do go a bit higher up. The park is massive, you could easily lose yourself for a couple of hours in here; there is also a skate park and a children’s play park.

A huge but cosy park on a hill with a river flowing by! Walk up the hill and see the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and other century old buildings from a different angle. Plenty of sitting benches and spaces!!

Calvingrove Park is a beautiful and serene place to relax and enjoy nature in the heart of the city. The park is well-maintained with lush green lawns, lovely flower beds, and plenty of walking paths. It's perfect for a quiet stroll, a picnic, or even just sitting on a bench and enjoying the surroundings. The Kelvin River runs through the park, adding to its charm. There are also playgrounds for kids and plenty of open spaces for sports or exercise. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful escape in the city!

A very beautiful park especially in spring. With bridges, statues, public bathrooms, Skatepark, beautiful fountains, beautiful flowers and close to the museum and the university. On Saturday and Sunday it is easy to park in the area.

Growing up in Glasgow I came here every weekend with my pals and now as a 100% fully grown and mature adult I do the same. The park is a prime area for scenic and long walks all year round, the lovely park changing with the season. In summer also it offers a beautiful spot for picnics and if you’re a kid a great opportunity to play tag in the playgrounds or skate in the skate park. All round my favourite park in Glasgow.

A terrific kids park and a great walk on a nice day. Loads for the younger kids like my granddaughter as well as a skate park and terrific grassy areas for a picnic if you can time the weather

Lovely place to wander around. Nice walkways, lots of grass playgrounds, river with bridge and access to gallery and museum. Walkable from city. Good coffee stop with indoor and outdoor seating. Good selection of snacks and drinks. City prices. Big enough to spend an afternoon walking sitting, enjoying the trees.

A thoroughly enjoyable Sunday afternoon spent with my family, basking in the sunshine while enjoying our picnic. Location wise, the park sits south of Hillhead and Woodlands - a short walk from the OVO Hydro as well. We parked on one of the side streets near Kelvin Hall - plenty of spaces, even on a busy day (pay attention to parking restrictions). We wandered along to the grassy area south of the Stewart Memorial Fountain and sat there for a while. The place was mobbed, but at no point did it defer from a friendly, family atmosphere. We done a loop around the grounds, taking in the park next to the ‘An Clachan Café’ and ending up at the amphitheatre, where we watched part of a ‘Pitch Perfect’ style gig. The whole area was massive and we only touched a fraction of it, in the two hours we were there. In the end, the heat was getting the better of the boys so we headed for the car to get home. Certainly a place we’d visit again, maybe next time picking a cooler day. Impressed by the surrounding eating establishments as well, so definitely keen to explore them!
