A large, well-equipped community park on the West Bank featuring a disc golf course, fishing lagoon, tennis courts, playgrounds, and extensive picnic facilities. It's a genuine neighborhood park that serves the Algiers community and sees almost no tourist traffic, making it a refreshingly authentic New Orleans experience. The disc golf course is one of the best free outdoor recreation options in the metro area. Getting there requires crossing the Mississippi via ferry or bridge, which adds a small adventure.
