Find parks near you
Browse local parks and sort by distance so it is easier to decide where to go next.
Built for better park discovery
Your city is worth exploring.
Parques helps people find nearby parks, discover new public spaces, and keep track of the places they have explored—starting in Jacksonville, Florida.
One platform. Two goals: make parks easier to discover and easier for communities to promote.
For residents
Spend less time searching. Spend more time outside.
Parques turns a long list of public parks into a simple, useful discovery experience.
◎
Discover more of your city
Move beyond the same few familiar places and uncover parks you may not have known were nearby.
✓
Track where you have been
Mark parks as visited and turn exploring your local park system into something you can actually keep up with.
Why Parques exists
Public parks are already there. Discovery is the missing layer.
Cities invest heavily in public spaces, but residents often experience park information as scattered webpages, PDFs, maps, or search results. Parques is designed to make that information feel like a modern consumer product.
✓
Mobile-first. Built around how people actually decide where to go.
✓
Local by design. The experience is centered on a community and its own park system.
✓
Simple on purpose. The goal is discovery, not another complicated civic portal.
The idea
Make the public park system feel easier to explore than a restaurant app.
Parques began as a Jacksonville park-discovery product and is being developed into a platform that can serve other communities.
One product, two audiences
Useful for residents. Valuable for cities.
For people exploring their city
Give residents a cleaner way to find parks, discover new places, and build a habit of using public spaces.
For parks departments and municipalities
Parques can serve as the resident-facing discovery layer for a local park system, with deployments tailored to the needs and identity of each community.
