Nay Aug Park is the largest park in Scranton, Pennsylvania. An amusement park on the site closed in the 1990s, but a small amusement area still operates near the swimming pool complex. The park also houses the Nay Aug Gorge and the Everhart Museum. At one time it also had a zoo, as well as two Olympic-sized swimming pools.

The name of the park is of Native American origin, meaning "noisy brook".[1]
