Parque de la Familia ("Family Park", previously known as Parque Fluvial Padre Renato Poblete (Father Renato Poblete River Park); also known as the "Navigable Mapocho") is a public park located in the commune of Quinta Normal in Santiago, Chile. It is part of the "Santiago integrated park system" that also included Parque Forestal and Parque de Los Reyes.
The park was inaugurated on January 21, 2015, and is the first of its kind in the country.[1] As part of the "Santiago integrated park system", located west of Parque de Los Reyes on the south bank of the Mapocho River, and it will be connected with the future "Parque Centenario de Quinta Normal" (Quinta Normal Centennial Park)[2] by the "Cicloparque Mapocho 42K" (“42k Mapocho Cycle Park”), a 42 kilometre cycle path and park that, when finished, will run along the Mapocho River.
The park bore the name of the Jesuit priest Father Renato Poblete (1924 - 2010), known for his efforts in the reconciliation process after the end of the Chilean dictatorship and the transition to democracy. On 9 April 2019 the park was renamed as Parque de la Familia (Family Park) after sexual abuse reports surfaced against Renato Poblete.[3]
