Great park with lots to do and places to explore. They have a great walking loop with a bridge across the river. Short walk to Fort Granger. Covered pavilions with grills, corn hole, table tennis, and restroom facilities. Also a very nice play area for kids called Tinkerbell Playground. Additional play equipment and sand pits throughout the park. It was busy when we last visited but its a big park with plenty of space to spread out. Kids loved it!

Even though we are definitely not kids anymore, we both felt like we were when we were here. We had a great time and a lot of fun and laughs that day. I love that they had no problems with our service dog being there as well. I cant wait to be able to come back!

Its great to see parks full of people, families, friends, exercisers, and relaxers. This is a great park with tons to do. Id recommend coming here no matter your mood and take a walk. If youre in a bad mood swing on the swing set. If youre in a good mood exercise around the track. Regardless, I encourage you to seize the day. Get out and enjoy this park.

Clean park with 2 huge jungle gyms for your kids. There is a mile long walking paths with different exercise locations. There are also multiple picnic areas that are covered.

Went here to celebrate my grandchildren joint Birthday party. It is spotless in the bathrooms and the park it is safe staff is there and it if fun.

We enjoyed the walk around the park with our dog. The 1 mile paved path is great for walking and/or jogging. The playground area is great for kids! There is even a sandbox and cornhole (but youll need to bring your own beanbags). There are pet waste bags available if you bring your dog (which must be kept on a leash). We enjoyed our time. I hope you enjoy your visit as much as we did.

Very nice park just over the railroad tracks from historic downtown Franklin. A great place for the kids, for a family gathering (under one of the large covered pavilions), a picnic, a long walk, a place to bring your pet, a put-in on the Harperh River, or a short walk (up hill) to the historic fort.

Super nice park, great for kids and families. Huge play area although some are quite old in nature.Easily accessible restrooms, clean and probably needs some maintenance.Wonderful park with lots of hiking trails!

Awesome park for families with kids of all ages. Nice walking path of 1mile. Plenty of parking. Nice restroom.

Pinkerton Park is always a joy. There is a walking trail exactly 1 mile long. There is a really cool bridge and kayaking take out/put in spot. The best part is post set up to hang hammocks! Id highly recommend this for everyone.

Peaceful! Great place to take pictures, have your kids go and play, or just hang out and relax.

Love this park. Always clean and quiet. A go to for me and my family for some fun or to just kill some time.

This is simply one of my favorites places in the world. It’s a beautiful and very good place to do hiking and fitness.

Great place for a family outing. You can bring your own food and eat it there too.A couple of play areas where there are a number of innovative playthings for children. A few trails to take a stroll thru the park. A bridge over a small stream. A lot of photo opportunities.There are a lot of open spaces to relax and there is a shaded area where you can have food.Ample parking space and well maintained bathrooms make it a good family place to visit on weekends or even on evenings if you live around Franklin area. Definitely reccommended.

Pinkerton Park is one of the most well-maintained outdoor spaces I know if in the area. I am one of the many people who make a commute to Franklin for work and find 5 oclock traffic unbearable, so since its been nice out Ive made a habit of going for some exercise after work.Its a nice, wide open area that never feels too crowded, even when the parking lot gets full.

I love this park! I went there as a child and now when I am in town from Florida bring my sons here to play. It isnt your average playground that we can go anywhere to find. It entertained my kids for at least a hour. It is great!

Best place to walk/run in city of Franklin. You can sldo take pets on a leash.

Beautiful parkGreat place to take pups and also of you have a hammock bring it ! And a book

This park has a great walking trail and playground love this place. You can go Kayaking ️

Great walking trail. Always pleasant place to spend time, picnicking or letting kids play in the playground.

Had a surprise birthday gathering there for my boyfriend. 6 ppl and we had a good time beautiful park and trail!

Great outdoor park for kids with trails for cycling and walking

Pinkerton park has been around for decades. Its perfect for creating memories that last

Great place to have a good time with family and friends.

We LOVE pinkerton park! It’s huge and has something for everyone. A section that’s great for toddlers and younger kids, another section that’s better for older kids, tons of walking trails and fields to play on. I wish they had a dog park here but we love bringing our dog to go on walks here. It’s one of my favorite parks in Nashville! Tons of trees and a river that runs through the park. Every time we go there are kids playing football or soccer.

Ive been coming to Pinkerton Park for years, and love it!Great walking track, with little excercise stations along the way for those who need a little more than just a pleasant walk. Also, plenty of porch swing style benches to stop and relax for a bit.Fantastic playground for little ones, up to big kids.Nice, covered picnic table areas for parties, family get togethers, or just a relaxing outdoor lunch break.Take a walk up the hill and check out Fort Grainger, (theres no actual fort, but the imprint, berms and trenches of what used to be there). Great view from up there, too!There is a big enough grassy area for half of Franklin to play frisbee, soccer, or whatever, and not run into each other!There is also a spot to put in a canoe, or kayak in and float the Harpeth.Check it out! You will not be disappointed!!

I really liked visiting Pinkerton Park. We didnt specifically intend to stop at the park, but we were in the area and wanted to give the kids a place to run around. I am glad that we did stop. The park has a lot of good amenities for both kids and adults a like. For the kids, there are 3 playgrounds. 2 of them are open playgrounds, and the other is completely enclosed with a small wall. I like having the wall because I can hang out by the entrance without worrying about the kids getting out. With that said, the main reason I didnt give the park 5 stars is because of the state of the playground. It is pretty run down, and doesnt seem to have been maintained very much.On the adult side, there are some nice pavilions with grills and built in corn-hole boards. There is even an outdoor ping-pong table, with a ping-pong ball dispenser (for a fee of course). There is a nice running/walking path that runs through the park. I dont know the total length of it. There are a few areas where you can hang up a hammock in the tree line. And a bridge that crosses over the creek that runs along the border of the park. You can actually walk down to the creek in a few spots, and there is a canoe/kayak launch.I would definitely bring my kids back to visit this park again if we are in the area.

Wonderful park for children. Very clean. My kids loved Tinkerbells playground.Wonderful for your four legged kids as well.

The playground is super fun for the kiddos. My boy enjoyed it a lot even in the middle of the heat of the day.

Nephews birthday party, my 3 year old loved the playgrounds

Great park, well maintained. During these times they had had sanitizing stations all over.

The best park I have ever visited. It has open table tennis, muddy puddle, walking track. Even it has charging points

All the other Google guide are correct. This is a great..well kept park. One think left out is you can fish the very shallow river. I have caught small mouth bas in the pools and under the bridge. Unless it rained the past few days you will need bait as it is really to shallow for lures. The nearest nait store is the GUlf gas station is FranklinThe park is only about 8 minutes from downtown Franklin.All the deliveryman ( like delivery dudes ) will deliver food to the park.Plenty... PLENTY... of open spaceto social distance

Great place for anyone to enjoy. A nice trail that you can take to downtown Franklin. Two playgrounds, two sand pits, Cornhole, ping-pong table with balls for 25¢, lots of pavilions, and places to plug in.

Beautiful Park. Lots of outlets plenty of picnic tables.

One of the nicest places in town.

Beautiful park. Really nice place to bring g kids and fur babies ️ Theres several different things to do here. We loved it! #picnic #swingset #playground

Best place for a walk, great for talking, huge fan favorite for dogs, quiet and peaceful. Must see on a sunny afternoon.

Beautiful place and lots of playground equipment for the babies and children me and my 8 month old love it.

This park was pretty good and offered a pretty good amount of amenities, but the playscape seemed a bit dated.

Nice asphalt paved walking/running/biking course ~1.6 miles, great childrens play area, adventurous bluffs overlooking the river and a stepped decent down to the river for launching canoes. Dogs are allowed but on a leash, and ours had a great time. It catered to our whole family.

Cant speak highly enough about this park. Lots of room for kids to play on a playground with shade. Wonderful walking trail that has an interactive book to read as you go along, also with several stations with exercise for people in wheelchairs and older adults. Set up for bags, ping pong, and hammocks. Tons of green space. Park really has something for everyone.

Nice, quite place, good for kids all ages, grill setup, worth a visit

Nearly ideal city park. Plenty of open spaces and playground areas. Great for kids up to about middle school. Parking is tough on the weekends, though.

I nice place to hang out, exercise or play. Can get crowded but not too crowded

Best little park in Franklin! They recently added corn-hole (bring your own bags) and ping-pong which makes in even more of a great time for the kids! Park is great to bring the dog, let the kids play and even sit back and relax! There is an albino squirrel living on the property as well - see if you can find him and post a picture!

Really great park in a spectacular city. Wish Franklin werent so mentally imprisoned by judging the Gay community! Your city might love Jesus ~ how about Loving the rest of His Fathers creation!?

This is definitely my favorite park to go to in Franklin. I love how there are places set up to hang enos and relax by the Harpeth River. It’s a wonderful place to go when you need a break and want to enjoy nice weather.

This place has it all. Including a time traveling albino squirrel which if you see him.... it’s good luck!

Nice track and always good landscaping

Wonderful outdoor space for kids and adults. We enjoyed the walking path and playground. Great place to walk the dog, too!

Very beautiful and family-friendly park

My favorite playground in all Williamson county. I don’t even know if there is one as good as this in Nashville

Beautiful park in franklin for morning walks / evening plays , small hike towards fort .There also is a bridge that runs over harpeth river.This park does have a history around small battle happened here.otherwise it has free parking , separate sitting area/ playground with kids hangs etc , small excerizing place and hooks for connecting your hammocks (around 6 in total).take a trip :) !

The park is well kept up. Many things to do, bike trail, walking trail and pin pong table. Its a large beautiful park!

Very well maintained

Takes me back to when i was a kid and times were simple... My son loves it just as much...

A clean, family friendly, breezy park with a playground and open space for activities. Nearby is the historical Fort Granger, which is fun to explore and learn about.

Love this place. Kids can enjoy.

Expansive, clean park with several stations for kids of all ages. Plus, plenty of walking trails for jogging, strolling, and walking dogs.One minor criticism and PSA: there is no baby changing station in the mens room. That is some BS. As if moms are the only ones that need to change a dirty diaper? Either put a station in the mens, or get with the times and make them unisex

Great place for kids love that it also has a sensory section

Pinkerton Park has done many upgrades lately. They have an awesome ping pong made from a thick slab of granite. There are ping pong balls in a machine for a quarter, and they provide the paddles for free. They have set up a beautiful slab of granite with electrical outlets for working on your computer, tablet or just charging your phone. They have wooden poles with Hardware to attach your own hammock. Theres a beautiful paved walking trail, much of it is covered with trees for lots of beautiful shade. There have a couple of large, very nice playgrounds for the kids. There is rest room facilities. There are several covered Pavilions for picnicking. Theres a couple of large field areas to play frisbee, football, soccer or whatever your hearts desire. There are swings to relax in covered with shade. Pinkerton Park has awesome upgrades. Im impressed! Love it!

My daughter loves here!!!

Park is really nice. Has good and big play area for kids. Has separate section for toddler, kids till age 8 and upwards which is really nice. Also has table and chairs for quick small party and get together. Enough place for riding cycle, playing freebie and other group games .

Its great for everyone!

Love this park! Great for all ages! Good field to fly small model planes.

Beautiful park, loved it and wish to visit again

Beautiful park with up to date stuff like the playground, bathrooms, and ping pong tables. For pokemon go players theres a few gyms and quite a few stops.

I really enjoyed the cool weather and it was a great place for a childs birthday party.

Best place to take the kiddos in franklin, so much fun and history.

Had a great time with the family here, large and lots of activities to do.

I always meet the best people here. Great place for kids to make new friends and adults too!

Been coming here since i was a kid it is a great park! theyve recently been putting in some updates such as a ping pong table as well as a place to charge devices. There is also a nice walking trail all the way at the back of the park that is really calming. Definitely worth checking out!

Its a great park with trails. Kids definitely will enjoy. Try once.

Beautiful Park!! Very nice on evenings in the fall, nice scenery, and it never gets old to see. Everything about it is nice, just perfect!

Convenient place to exercise and for kids to play. For hikers it connects to the downtown greenspace and on the hill adjacent an old Union civil war stone fortification for artillery emplacement.

If you go to Pinkerton Park or any other park, TAKE YOUR PURSE WITH YOU. There are traveling thieves who frequent parks, dog parks, gyms, YMCAs, and recreational areas who wait for unsuspecting women to leave their purses in their car. Within minutes of the victims walking away, the victims window is smashed and their purse is taken. Many times the credit cards are immediately used, and sometimes the victims identity and bank accounts are used for further fraudulent activities. Park smart and dont become a victim. If you see something or someone suspicious, call the local police to alert them.

Expansive park with plenty of space and play options for kids of all ages. Walking trails and multiple playground areas make for an extremely fun and popular park near the downtown area of Franklin. Not a lot of parking spaces to accommodate all of the people who come out here on nice days during the weekend. The park also contains the Fort Granger historical site and trail area in the northern area of the park.First park I’ve ever seen with a concrete ping pong table where you can buy extra balls from a gumball machine.

Small but nice park. Schools use it for field trips. A few picnic tables with trash cans and barbecue grills. Playing fields and a measured walking trail. Clean and inviting. Good spot for a casual lunch.

The river, tinker Bell play ground, the wise fields. This place is magic. Recently updated with outdoor games and changing stations.

Our favorite park for kids of any age! Theres an amazing wooden playground area which is especially nice for small toddlers because its almost entirely enclosed in a fence area, a metal climbing dome, giant sandbox and plenty of covered picnic tables to bring a lunch and enjoy! A nice walking trail surrounds the whole park too. Its one of our favorites!

Nice park with a mile long gravel path. A couple of play areas for children. There is a building with restrooms for both male and female and a family restroom as well. A new addition of a ping pong table. There is a vending machine for balls. I believe you have to bring your own paddles. There are a few pavilions at the park that are available for rent. A river access point at the front of the park to put in a canoe. At the back of the park you can take a path and make a small climb up to a civil war site. There are also a few places scattered throughout the park to hang a hammock and relax.

Plenty of grass area, paved and dirt trails. Benches everywhere. Great park! And playground.

Its a fantastic park, well maintained, nice arrangement for kids play and lot of sitting places. Recommending as Must go

A good place to hang out for every age group especially for kids.

Usually its a 4 star, but bc it was over 90°and we had a mtg there I noticed, but there should be some kind of shade over the playgrounds out in the field. That day had a lot of construction. It was just hot and miserable

Needs more activities. IMOThe playground is nice but a little dated. There is a ping pong table but has no paddles but they do have ping pong balls you can purchase for 25 cents. I guess you can bring your own paddles but Im not paying for something that I dont do that often.Anyways the park is clean and has a good ring/sidewalk to walk or ride bikes. Swings are very old and not for taller kids so if your 12 or older sorry for your loss and if your a parent like me your your out of luck swinging with your kids. They do have grills and tables for cooking out and enjoying your family and food.Also has a place to put canoes in the harpath river.

Good hiking trails, lots of picnic tables, and they have 2 playgrounds so its great for kids too

Great family park. Dog friendly and tons of space.

Would have given this park a 5 star, but the amount of flies is really anoying. Otherwise, lots of equipment, shaded picnic areas, and a lot of fun for kids.

Great running/walking trail marked for distance. I think the distance is a bit understated though and two distance tracking acts confirm that the 1 mile markers are actually about 1.05

Very nice park with walking path, tennis table, corn hole and playgrounds

Always fun

Walk behind the park and there are some great trails and wonderful places to hammock!

Beautiful city park with something for everybody. Two very diverse playgrounds that accommodates children from infancy to early teens. Two walking trails, one that features exercise equipment with instructions. Another through a densely wooded path. A stream that can accommodate non-motorized water vessels. A great place to spend a lunch hour or the day.

One of my favorites

Very nice.

Clean, unique playground equipment including a ping pong table and large stone ball with water coming out of it. 2 separate playgrounds side by side - one for smaller children.

My kids love this park. They have two playgrounds. One wooden fenced in playground, the other is metal and not fenced. They also have a ping-pong table and charging tables for electronic devices.

WOW!! This park is amazing! It has a little something for all age groups! I love that the main playground only has one point of entry/ exit. The walking trails are gorgeous and well maintained. I appreciate the shelters for picnics and shade. My kids love the sandbox and layout of the larger playground. If it gets a little crowded, we can always go over to the other area. It’s definitely our go to park when we’re in the Franklin area.
