Ahvenispuisto is a diverse recreation area located on Valtaraitti in Hervanta in Tampere. It is one of Hervanta's main playgrounds right next to the city centre. The centre of the park is the 3-hectare Ahvenisjärvi lake whose maximum depth is about 15 metres. A shore path circles the lake and on the north shore there is an event pier. The area also features Shopping Centre Duo, a multi-purpose centre and a church right next door.
