Blair Park is a small park in the city of Piedmont, California located in the Oakland Hills near the head of Moraga Canyon.

Originally developed as a 75-acre (30 ha) amusement park, it was much larger than the 5.5 acres (2.2 ha) it currently occupies.[1] Blair Park is the only natural open space left in the city of Piedmont.[2]
