Highlight • Lake

Literally the big lake within City Park. It is surrounded by art sculptures and a natural habitat for many birds. There is a small bike path on a pier going a bit over the water.

Ancient Live Oak in New Orleans City Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

New Orleans City Park is the largest outdoor attraction in New Orleans at 1,300 acres, surpassing Central Park in size. It is also one of the oldest parks in the country, and features many different attractions, including the New Orleans Botanical Garden, Storyland playground, and Carousel Gardens Amusement Park, alongside themed gardens, biking and walking paths, live concerts, and the world’s largest grove of mature live oak trees. The park offers facilities for various events, recreational rentals like surreys and swan boats, and private gondola rides. Be aware if riding your bike: golf carts are allowed on designated roads but not on bike paths or grassy areas, and they must follow posted speed limits.
