About the Location

Play & Splash Around

Found on Hayner Avenue in Las Cruces, Branigan Park offers a little oasis for locals and visitors alike. If you're looking to practice your swing, the park features a softball field where you can catch a local game or organize your own friendly match.

When the New Mexico sun cranks up the heat, the park's swimming pool becomes the place to be. Nothing beats taking a refreshing dip after a long day, especially during those scorching summer months.

What to Expect

While Branigan Park isn't the largest green space in Las Cruces, it packs in plenty of recreational value. The layout focuses on athletic facilities rather than elaborate landscaping, making it more of a practical space for activities than a scenic strolling spot.

The park maintains a family-friendly atmosphere with amenities that work for both kids and adults, but it's best enjoyed when facilities are actively in use.

Local Hangout

As one piece of the Las Cruces park system puzzle, Branigan Park provides outdoor recreation options. Between the softball diamond, grassy areas for picnics, and the swimming pool, there's enough variety to satisfy different interests.

It's worth noting that some community members have expressed concerns about safety and how the space is used at times. If you're planning a visit, you might want to go during daylight hours when the park tends to be livelier with families and sports enthusiasts.
