Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Onion Creek Metropolitan Park has over 550 acres of land for visitors to enjoy.

Onion Creek Metropolitan Park is mostly flat, with lots of thick woods and several small ponds, and is named for Onion Creek, which runs through it. As of right now, the park is largely undeveloped, and doesn’t contain the playgrounds, sports facilities, or performance spaces of other parks on this list.

But what Onion Creek Metropolitan Park does have to offer is a beautiful up close look at nature. Dogs are more than welcome in Onion Creek (though owners should always remember to use their best judgment when letting dogs off leash and always clean up after their four-legged friends), and many visitors enjoy mountain biking and hiking on some of the rough trails that make their way through the woods.
