Andover Central Park
About the Park
As you drive into the beautiful 80-acre park, you will notice the nature/walking path (approximately 3/4 miles) that winds around Lake George. The lake is stocked with fish by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism. The lake has six handicap accessible fishing docks. A state issued fishing license is required.
There are several picnic areas on the lake and a large shelter across the street from the Library. Next you will find a handicap-accessible playground for all ages. Further south into the park are several open areas and another hiking path.
Andover Central Park is located at 1607 E. Central. View a map of Andover Central Park.
