Musgrave Park is a public park found in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It was named after Sir Henry Musgrave who donated the land used to build the park. The surrounding area entails trading estates and residential houses. There are several facilities found in that park which include: a bowling pavilion, playing fields, walks, nature areas and bottle banks. From the year 2010, it has developed a therapy garden. The Musgrave Park Hospital has contributed to rehabilitation for all ages.
Alongside the Park, there is a smaller park at the south, Grovelands joined to Musgrave by the main pathway which runs through both of them. There have been installed public access defibrillators for park users. The park contains two bowling greens and Gaelic football, hurling and camogie pitches. The park is popular with walkers and joggers. It has a Highway to Health route.
