The park is situated at the confluence of the Neva and the Okhta rivers.
The layout incorporates sections of the former industrial waterfront repurposed for public leisure.
The area is home to several commemorative plaques and monuments dedicated to local history and the blockade of Leningrad.
The park's geometry is dictated by the curve of the Neva embankment, creating an elongated rather than square footprint.
Malookhtinskiy Park is a public recreational green space located on the right bank of the Neva River in the Malaya Okhta district of St. Petersburg. The park serves as a linear green buffer between the dense residential urban development and the embankment. It features paved walkways, mature tree plantings, and maintained lawns that stretch along the riverfront. The design prioritizes pedestrian access to the waterfront, offering direct views across the Neva towards the historic city center. The area is integrated into the Malaya Okhta public space network, providing a contrast to the nearby high-traffic road junctions.
