Northwest Greenway Playground is settled in a quaint park perfect for a day of play, hiking, biking, or picnicking. 

Just outside Dell Children’s Medical Center in the East-Central mixed-use community of Mueller, lies a quiet park and picnic area along the bike and walk trail connecting the multiple parks in the area. The park includes a playscape, swings, field, benches and a beautiful vine-covered picnic table area perfect for birthday parties or other gatherings. 

This area is beautiful and a great escape from the city. There are plenty of climbing and play features available, and a perfect spot to play and relax. There is a lot of shade from the trees, and it is a great area to walk your furry friend or to just take a stroll. There is a grassy area for playing games like football, soccer, and more. Parking is accessible and readily available. 

If you wish, take the trail southeast all the way past the firehouse and you'll reach the food trucks outside the hanger at Mueller Lake Park.

There are no bathrooms at this park, so plan accordingly!
