Visit White River State Park

Green Spaces

White River State Park has some of the city’s most relaxing and tranquil green spaces, including Celebration Plaza, The Celebration Plaza Amphitheatre, Historic Military Park at White River State Park, State Museum Lawn, Old Washington Street Bridge, Bison Plaza, Children’s Maze, Locust Grove, The Oval, Promenade Amphitheatre, Pumphouse Island and the Waterfront Pavilion. Each space is uniquely different.

Canal

The Canal Walk runs through White River State Park from the White River to West Street and then north to 10th Street. The Canal Walk’s 3-mile loop is a popular urban destination for locals and visitors alike. The waterfront is dotted with White River State Park attractions, pedal boat and gondola rentals, bicycle and surrey rentals, and restaurants.

If  you’re interested in renting the Canal for a special event, White River State Park can help you book the portion of the Canal from White River to West Street and direct you to the additional contacts.
