Calisthenics Parks in Moscow

Calisthenics in Moscow: what the map shows

131 of the 1,928 spots mapped in Moscow record which equipment they hold, and roughly a third of those have pull-up bars — 35%. Parallel bars are almost as common at 27%. 11 kinds of equipment appear in total, down to leg press stations at 3 sites, so it is worth opening a listing rather than assuming every park is the same.

Spots are spread across 349 named neighbourhoods in Moscow. Those with the most recorded are 8-й Г микрорайон Митина (44), Ивановское (43), 11-й микрорайон Митина (42), Люблино (29) and Жилой комплекс «Holland Park» (27), which is where to start if you want several options within walking distance.

Moscow accounts for 38% of the spots mapped across Russia, and they are spread over roughly 39 km, so it is worth filtering the map to your own area.

The best-equipped site on record is Calisthenics Park – набережная Тараса Шевченко, listing plyo boxes, pull-up bars, monkey bars, parallel bars, sit-up benches.
