SOUTHWESTWAY PARK

Southwestway Park is a 587-acre regional park that includes natural and cultural landscapes. The park is the second largest park in the Indy Parks and Recreation system. The park amenities include a trail system used for hiking, running and horseback riding. Additionally, there are soccer fields, ball diamonds and an 18-hole golf course (Winding River Golf Course) used for recreational sports. Future recreational facilities to be developed on the recently acquired Mann property to the north will include a swimming pool, recreation and nature center, and additional athletic fields. Another recent acquisition to the south is Cottonwood Lakes. This oxbow floodplain property will be designed and restored for passive recreation.
