About this water
Eagle Creek Park is a municipal park in the northwest of Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. Officially opened in 1972, it covers approximately 3,900 acres (16 km2) of land and 1,400 acres (5.7 km2) of water. The largest park in Indianapolis and one of the largest municipal parks in the United States, it contains about 30 miles (48 km) of trails. The majority of the park sits on land amassed by Josiah K.

It is operated by Indy Parks & Recreation with support from the Eagle Creek Park Foundation.
