Millennium Park

About Millennium Park

Millennium Park is one of our nation's largest urban parks with portions in Grand Rapids, Walker, Grandville and Wyoming. With 1,400 acres of rolling terrain and six miles of frontage on the Grand River, the park is rich in natural resources, featuring unique habitats and large natural areas for wildlife to thrive. Facilities within the park include a six-acre beach and splashpad, boat rental facilities, nearly 18 miles of trails, and other diverse opportunities for recreation and relaxation.

Planning for the park was launched in the year 2000. As a regional celebration of our nation's millennium, the park is an ambitious project to eventually reclaim 1,500 acres of heavily-used land for public recreation. Now stretching between Johnson Park and John Ball Park, Millennium Park offers an abundance of land to explore and outdoor activities to enjoy.
