Like Montbello, Parkfield’s proximity to the Rocky Mountain Arsenal makes it a huge draw to people wanting to have wide-open spaces near home. Miles of walking trails and scenic roads provide a glimpse into the thousands of wildlife species found at the Arsenal. In addition, there are nature programs, fishing opportunities, and blinds set up for wildlife viewing. This is a treasure in the heart of our urban landscape, and Parkfield neighborhood provides a great base to discover it.

Parkfield Lake Park rests in the confines of Parkfield neighborhood and is considered one of the crown jewels in the City of Denver park system. The newly enhanced 50-acre park has something for everyone. Amid beautiful trees and expansive athletic fields, this open space recently underwent a huge renovation adding multi-use playing fields, a skate park, playground, climbing wall, water spray ground, and dog park. The park is also home to the Montbello Recreation Center.
