Donard Park is a public park located in Newcastle, County Down. The park is next to the Glen River, which forms the boundary along one side.
The park features football and hockey pitches, picnic facilities and a golf driving range. It is also used as a starting point for ramblers to climb the nearby Mountains of Mourne and has a YMCA centre including camping facilities. As of March 2004 plans are being drawn up to redevelop the main entrance. The new design features retail space and rentable accommodation. The local council have been petitioned to also build a swimming pool in the park.
Underage drinking can be a problem at night-time.
