Spanning 100 acres, Brechtel Park is a beloved urban outdoor space that generations of New Orleans residents and visitors have enjoyed.

There’s much for you to see and do while you’re there; one of the most popular activities is bird watching since the surrounding of native trees and vegetations attracts several residential and migratory species. Brechtel Park is also a stop on the Barataria Loop of America’s Wetlands Birding Trail. There are playgrounds, a toddler play area, campsites for the scouting community, a baseball field, designated picnic spaces, event shelters with bathroom facilities, and many more amenities which you can make use of.
