The park's history dates back to the 16th century when the village of Fili belonged to the Mstislavsky noble family.
The onsite Naryshkin estate house underwent major restoration in the 2010s to preserve its original wooden architectural elements.
The park covers an area of approximately 280 hectares, primarily consisting of linden and oak forests.
During the Napoleonic Wars in 1812, the park area was close to the site of the famous Fili Council where the decision to abandon Moscow was made.
The park features a unique riverfront boardwalk constructed above the water level to preserve the shoreline vegetation.
Fili Park is a large historic forest estate located on the right bank of the Moskva River. The park features a designated high ropes adventure course with varied difficulty levels for visitors. Infrastructure includes extensive bike rental stations and paved paths for cycling across the wooded terrain. The territory encompasses the Naryshkin Estate, a landmark of 18th-century Russian architecture. Recent renovations have integrated modern recreational facilities into the natural riverside woodland. The site serves as a major green lung for the western district of Moscow.
