Heartland of America Park

Heartland of America Park is a public park located at 800 Douglas Street in downtown Omaha. The 31-acre park is situated between Interstate 80 and the Missouri River, and is adjacent to Gene Leahy Mall and the Old Market and connects to Lewis & Clark Landing. The lagoon makes up a very good portion of this park and an excellent trail circles the lagoon. This trail is made for walking, not for bicycles. Perhaps the planners figured it would be too busy to allow bicycles on. Bring your camera and take pictures! The whole park has lots of photo opportunities. If you are planning a trip to Heartland of America Park you may want to bring some bread. The fish and waterfowl will be more than willing to feast on these things. It’s fun to feed them!
