Maple Park

Park Overview

Nestled on the edge of midtown Tulsa, Oklahoma, Maple Park is a cozy 7-acre green retreat that offers something special - beautiful views of the downtown Tulsa skyline. Despite its modest size, this compact green space in the Tulsa Parks system packs quite a punch as a neighborhood hangout spot where locals and visitors can catch their breath from city life.

Amenities

Looking for a place where the kids can burn off some energy? Maple Park features a playground with a climbing gym and swings that'll keep the little ones entertained.

When Oklahoma's summer heat hits hard, the park's splash pad provides welcome relief. It typically runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend - perfect timing for those scorching summer months.

Recreation Opportunities

Pack a lunch and make use of the park's picnic table for an impromptu outdoor meal surrounded by greenery. Sometimes the simplest pleasures are the best, right?

If you're looking to get some steps in, the park's walking trail offers a peaceful path for your daily exercise or a leisurely weekend stroll. What's really cool is that this trail connects to the larger Midland Valley Trail system, linking downtown Tulsa from 3rd to 15th Street to Riverparks and the Gathering Place. If you're on foot or two wheels, it's a great way to explore more of what Tulsa has to offer.

Neighborhood Setting

Part of what gives Maple Park its character is its location in the historic Maple Ridge neighborhood - one of Tulsa's oldest and most prestigious areas. Known for its impressive architecture, this setting creates a unique atmosphere where urban convenience meets peaceful suburban vibes.

The park's position also makes it an excellent spot to take in city views. Want to catch the Folds of Honor fireworks? You've found one of the best vantage points in town.

Practical Information

Note that parking at Maple Park is limited, so you might want to consider alternative transportation if possible. Dog lovers, your four-legged friends are welcome, but remember to keep them leashed at all times.

While the park offers great facilities like the playground and splash pad, there's one thing to keep in mind - there are no public restrooms available, so plan accordingly.
