About Pelham Bay Park
Pelham Bay Park is New York City’s largest park property, spanning approximately 2,771.75 acres across multiple corridors including Middletown Road, Stadium Avenue, Bruckner Blvd, and Westchester Ave. Operated by NYC Parks, the park offers a wide array of outdoor spaces and attractions, from Orchard Beach and a historic estate at Bartow-Pell Mansion to tranquil lakes, golf, trails, and wildlife areas. This page provides practical details to help you plan visits, secure parking, and find nearby hotels and dining options for a seamless experience.
