Muromets Park, Large recreational park in northern Kyiv, Ukraine.
Muromets Park is a large recreation area in northern Kyiv that occupies two islands in the Dnipro River, combining beaches, open green spaces, and sports facilities across its grounds. The park spreads between two residential neighborhoods and serves as a natural buffer of landscaping and waterside access for the city.
The park was created in 1972 as a recreational space for the city and was renamed in 2018 to reflect the island on which it sits. This change in name marked a shift in how the location was understood and used by residents and visitors.
The memorial garden contains 15 distinct sectors with specific plant species, including silver spruce and red oak, representing different regions of historical significance.
The park is easy to explore on foot or by bicycle, with multiple entry points from the surrounding neighborhoods. Facilities including restaurants, equipment rentals, and parking are scattered across the grounds near beach areas.
A sports zone within the park operates a cable wakeboarding system that runs over the water, offering a setup that is not common in city parks. This specialized facility draws people looking for athletic activities beyond typical park recreation.
