Parque Mapocho Poniente, Urban park in Cerro Navia, Chile

Parque Mapocho Poniente sits along the southern bank of the Mapocho River, providing 13 hectares of green space with diverse recreational facilities. The park includes soccer fields, roller skating rinks, skateparks, multipurpose courts, and two artificial ponds.

The park began construction in January 2021 as part of Santiago's larger urban renewal efforts. Architects Hernan Fontaine and Diego Labbe designed the project to revitalize the area along the Mapocho River.

The park's name comes from its position on the south bank of the Mapocho, the river that crosses Santiago. Its landscaping uses native and Mediterranean-origin species chosen for low water use, among them Chilean willows (Salix humboldtiana), quillay, peumo, boldo and the Chilean palm (Jubaea chilensis).

The park runs 9 km along the south bank of the Mapocho, from Avenida La Estrella in Cerro Navia east to the Parque de la Familia in Quinta Normal, so pick an entrance near your destination. The Cicloparque Mapocho 42K borders it to the north. Tramos III to VI opened on 4 March 2025 after a white march starting 22 February.

Three pedestrian bridges link the park to the neighboring Renca district and planned Metro Line 7 stations. These bridges create new pathways across the river and prepare the area for future public transportation connections.
