Beckley Creek Park

I have loved seeing the Parklands grow along the years, and it seems that the park has perfectly met every stage of life when I have visited. It was great for running and biking in years past, and now the playground and splash park are our favorite parts. One of the greatest parts of the park is the variety of it. From the great lawn to the rolling paths that wind past streams and through groves of trees, and the areas for launching kayaks, this is a park that offers something for everyone. Weekends mean a busier park as people want to enjoy the outdoors in their leisure time, but it never feels overly crowded, even on those days. I'm excited to see the Parklands and Beckley Creek continue to grow throughout the years!

The water is on! We really love this sprayground in Beckley Creek Park by the Egg Lawn.

Amazing place! Creek watching, walking , biking, jogging trails, dog park etc. Weather just to relax, workout, picnic or just some time in the sun; this place has plenty of options. Plenty of parking areas, clean and safe place. Easy access and just an amazing natural area to enjoy perfect weather and soak the views.

I thought it was time for an updated review. This park is an absolutely terrific place to spend a day. This is one of a number of parks in the Parklands of Floyds Fork system . There are a numbers of trails to walk, hike or bike. There are benches scattered out around and picnic areas to enjoy a nice outdoor meal. They do an awesome job of keeping everything clean so if you are looking for a place to get outdoors this is it.

I love this park. I first went to this park last year to run my 10K. This year I went back to run my virtual derby mini marathon. The atmosphere and the peacefulness of this park is out of this world. You will run into joggerss, runners, walkers, soccer training, kite flyers, dog walkers, people fishing, hiking trails, etc...Even though I didn't get the opportunity to run my first mini with some amazing people, I am glad that this park was available for me to accomplish my goal and mark another one of my bucket list. I decided to run in the egg lawn erea which is .7 miles around and it's a flat surface.

Coming back showed this place to be a spectacular example of Kentuckiana. One drives through splendid country views, but most of the state is inaccessible. Here, a beautifully manicured park gives you an easy trek through a variety of scenery ranging from wetlands to fields laden with wildflowers. Some sort of fairly dramatic freshwater crayfish confrontation was going on in the stream, and the area was a bird-watcher's dream. Various sports fields and facilities dotted the landscape, without ruining it. The names suggested some fairly expensive corporate sponsorship. I'm not going to pick my health insurance based on who funded the park, but you have to give credit where credit is due. The place is quite spectacular.

This place is fantastic. My family and I come here all the time and it is never a disappointment. It has many sites and trails to offer. Definitely check it out

I love Beckley Creek Park! We visit The Parklands of Floyds Fork often, and this is one of my favorite areas. There's so much to do here! There's Egg Lawn, which is a large lawn area where you can picnic, or just lay out on a blanket and read. I've also seen folks playing frisbee and other yard games. There's also fishing, both at the creek or in the lakes, there are plenty of trails to walk, hike, or bike, there's a playground, a spray park, and there's a great pavillion. There's also a learning center, which is really educational, and would be great to visit with kids. Typically when we visit we're biking, and we always have a great time! There are plenty of trails to explore, so even if you visit again and again you'll never get bored. And, even if you bike the same trails numerous times, you'll enjoy the scenery throughout the changing seasons. It's always beautiful! Recently we visited to kayak, and I loved it! I can't wait to go back to explore more of the creek, because I've only done half of it at this point. That's the great thing about this area, there's so much of it, so there's always something fun and new to do. If you're looking for an awesome local adventure, you've got to check out Beckley Creek Park!

This is such a cute park! With a crisis that has the world shut down, at least we get our beautiful parks to explore... Beckley Creek is a part of the wonderful Parklands. Sitting right off of the highway, it's such a large, gorgeous space to get some fresh air. There is a lot here besides the trail. There is a well-kept playground, visitor's center, and a huge green space for whatever event you may have... There is also tons of parking. There's a bridge that connects to Floyds Fork, so if you are wanting to expand your walk, this makes it even easier to do so. Great park to check out if you're near the Middletown/Simpsonville area!

Floyd's Fork waterway has reinvigorated our Metro communities park system. The Louisville loop is apart of the master plan to circle the Louisville Metro area by creating a chain of parks, one is Beckley Park it's a beautiful slice of nature, the amenities created from a vision. This vision has continued through philanthropy from generous donations. Many thanks to those of love to mention yet won't for fear of not including all. ( Donors can be found by spotting out Louisville metro parks website). There is a few other parks created along and throughout the Floyd's Fork water shed with each joins a chain of natural preserves to view wildlife, lookouts and activities for exercise, water playgrounds, hiking, walking paths and picnic areas. Some I've mentioned are all excellent. Most recently a casual afternoon drive entering Broad Run Park there was many deer to watch from afar, along with a walk to the silo lookout at Turkey Run Park only end our day at Beckley Park relaxing in our hammock next to Floyd's Forks babbling stream. The park is incredibly well maintained. Well constructed roads and bridges linking to the 21st plan leading from one to another. There are many more areas waiting for you to explore so what are you waiting for. I hope you enjoy as much as we have and will continue too.
