Lassetter Park

A Neighborhood Oasis

Tucked away on Ridgecrest Drive SE in Albuquerque, Lassetter Park is one of those hidden escapes that locals treasure. It's part of Albuquerque's impressive network of green spaces (the city's Park Management Division actually takes care of more than 288 parks throughout the area).

What makes this spot special is its peaceful vibe. Set in a residential area away from the hustle and bustle, it's the kind of place where you can actually hear yourself think. There's something refreshing about finding a little pocket of tranquility right in the midst of neighborhood life.

What You'll Find Here

If you're bringing the little ones, they'll appreciate the playground where they can burn off some energy. The rest of the park offers simple, unpretentious grassy areas ideal for throwing a frisbee, having a picnic, or just lounging with a good book.

One of the nicest things about Lassetter is that it rarely gets crowded. You won't have to compete for space or deal with noise here - it's truly a calm retreat. And yes, your four-legged friends are welcome too! The park is dog-friendly, so your pup can enjoy some outdoor time alongside you.

When to Visit

The park welcomes visitors from 6AM to 10PM daily, and like other city parks, it's completely free to use. Whether you're an early bird looking to start your day with some fresh air or prefer an evening stroll as the day winds down, Lassetter accommodates your schedule.

Keeping It Nice

The city does a good job keeping Lassetter Park clean and inviting. If you happen to notice any maintenance issues during your visit, you can reach out to the Park Management Division or simply dial the city's 311 service line to report them.
