Parks in Indianapolis are operated primarily by the City of Indianapolis Department of Parks and Recreation, also known as Indy Parks. There are 192 such park facilities grouped into several categories[1]. In addition to the parks operated by Indy Parks, there are also parks operated by the state of Indiana, by the excluded cities of Beech Grove and Speedway. In addition, there are privately-owned parks that are not accessible to the general public.
