Leppävaara Sports Park, sports park in Espoo, Finland
Leppävaara Sports Park is a large sports facility in Espoo with multiple fields, courts, and tracks for different sports. At its center stands a stadium with about 2,800 seats, surrounded by tennis courts, a concrete skate park, swimming areas, basketball courts, and well-maintained grass and running surfaces.
The sports park was established many years ago and has grown into an important community hub over time. It hosted major events such as the Kalevan Games in 2009 and the European Championship for athletes with visual and physical disabilities in 2005.
The park takes its name from the Leppävaara neighborhood and serves as a gathering place for the local sports community. You will see local clubs, school teams, and neighbors meeting here regularly, making it a social hub where people of different ages come together.
The facility is easily accessible by public transport, bicycle, or on foot from the neighborhood, with parking available for drivers. The park is open year-round but adapts to the seasons, with winter allowing for ice skating and cross-country skiing.
Nearby is an adventure park called Seikkailupuisto Huippu featuring a treetop course and a zip line over 100 meters long that hangs between the trees. This combines excitement with nature and is often a surprising highlight that many visitors discover.
