The park overlooks Powderhorn Lake providing excellent views. There are four baseball fields, multiple purpose fields, numerous tennis courts, playgrounds and the Powderhorn Park Skating Rink which is used heavily during the winter months. The park also has numerous paths that are used by walkers, runners and skaters.

About a mile to the north different major entertainment venues can be found. One of the biggest and most popular is the Hubert M Humphrey Metrodome. The metrodome is known for drawing in major musical acts, shows, events and the Monster Truck events.

Just north of the Metrodome is a somewhat unique museum, the Mill City Museum. This museum was built into the ruins of an old flour mill. The museum tells the history of the area, the Mississippi River, and of the flour industry. The museum has many different events throughout the year and is a popular destination for school field trips.
