Heinäpuisto Park

What kind of park is it?

Heinäpuisto is located in the city centre of Tampere near Pyynikintori Square. The park is bordered by Ilomäentie in the west, Pirkankatu in the north, Heinätori parking area in the east and Heinätori street in the south.

In 2011, Heinäpuisto was renovated as a recreation and scenic park with ornamental grasses as its theme. At the heart of the park is a large wooden platform that serves as a shared rest and recreation area. The park also has two flat areas for playing petanque on a pebble ash surface.

The central part of the park is dominated by diverse ornamental grasses and small trees that flower in the spring. The ornamental grasses also include flowering perennials and bulbs plants, ensuring that the park’s vegetation creates a unique atmosphere all year round. A lit path for pedestrian and bicycle traffic runs through the park as an extension of Kisakentänkatu, connecting to Pirkankatu.
