Greenbriar Park

Nature's Neighborhood Retreat

Tucked away in a Fort Collins residential area, Greenbriar Park features a nice blend of open spaces and mature shade trees that's especially inviting on a sunny Colorado day. It's a place where locals gather to relax while enjoying the mountain views that make Colorado so distinctive.

What makes this park stand out is its peaceful vibe - it never feels overcrowded, yet there's always enough friendly energy to remind you you're part of a community. It's that sweet spot between lively and serene.

Play Your Way

If you're looking to break a sweat or just toss a ball around, Greenbriar offers several options. Soccer enthusiasts can enjoy a proper match on the full-size soccer field that's surprisingly well-maintained for a neighborhood park.

Got basketball skills to show off? The full court awaits your next game. If racquet sports are more your speed, take your pick between the tennis courts or try your hand at the increasingly popular pickleball courts.

Baseball fans haven't been forgotten - the baseball field hosts local games throughout the season and is available for practice when not officially booked. And the large grassy sports field works well for impromptu frisbee games, picnic blankets, or just cloud-watching on a lazy afternoon.

Family Fun Zone

The nature-inspired playground is a hit with the little ones, offering enough climbing, sliding, and exploring opportunities to wear out even the most energetic kids. Parents appreciate the thoughtful design that blends into the natural surroundings while still providing safe play spaces.

When lunchtime rolls around, the covered picnic area provides welcome shade and a wonderful spot for family meals or birthday celebrations. And yes, your four-legged family members are welcome too - the park is dog-friendly with convenient pet waste stations to help keep things clean.

The Practical Stuff

You'll find clean restrooms available when nature calls, but a heads-up: some stall locks can be a bit temperamental.

Parking is plentiful, so you won't have to circle around hunting for a spot. For those looking to get their steps in, the paved walking trail loops around the park, offering an easy surface for strollers, joggers, or evening strolls.

Behind the Scenes

The City of Fort Collins Parks Department keeps Greenbriar in tip-top shape, maintaining that perfect balance of well-cared-for without feeling overly manicured.

The park welcomes visitors daily from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., giving you plenty of time to enjoy all it has to offer. The park is consistently clean and well-maintained, reflecting the care of both the parks department and the local community.
