Kendall Indian Hammocks Park

Kendall Indian Hammocks Park is a Miami-Dade County park at 11395 SW 79th St in Kendall, built around a natural hardwood hammock. A nature trail runs under dense oak canopy, and guests describe it as long enough for a real workout.

Beyond the trees, the park packs in three 18-hole disc golf courses, a 14,000-square-foot Action Sports Plaza for skateboarding, lighted baseball and softball fields, a nature-based playground with areas for different age ranges, and fitness stations. Covered picnic shelters and gazebos sit close to the parking lot, playground, and restrooms, which makes the park a popular pick for birthday parties and family cookouts.

Barbecue grills, swings, slides, and a cycling lane add to the list. Dogs are allowed, and the entrance, parking lot, and restrooms are wheelchair accessible.

The park is open daily from 7 AM to 7 PM, parking is free, and no admission fee is listed. Shade is plentiful, though guests warn that mosquitoes show up in the afternoon, and the park does not sell snacks.
