The Parklands of Floyds Fork is a nonprofit that stewards almost 4,000 acres of preserved greenspace in eastern and southeastern Louisville, Kentucky. It comprises four named parks: Beckley Creek Park, Pope Lick Park, Turkey Run Park, and Broad Run Park, connected by a 19-mile stretch of the Louisville Loop and more than 60 miles of trails for walking, cycling, and paddling. The area is freely accessible to the public and operates year-round during daylight hours, with ongoing maintenance funded entirely through private donations and an endowment rather than tax revenue. It serves the general public as its primary audience, providing opportunities for outdoor recreation and conservation within a single park system in Louisville. In December 2023, the organization expanded its land holdings with the acquisition of two parcels to extend the park network.
