The park is named and located in alignment with the historical 'Garrison' designation of the surrounding Peshawar Cantonment area.
Its location is directly integrated with the Col Shair Khan Shaheed Stadium, named after a recipient of the Nishan-e-Haider, Pakistan's highest military gallantry award.
Garrison Park is a managed green space situated within the Peshawar Cantonment area, adjacent to the Col Shair Khan Shaheed Stadium. The facility provides a fenced, secure environment featuring paved walking paths and manicured lawns. It serves as a primary recreational hub for local families, offering designated play areas for children. The park is characterized by its organized layout and proximity to military-administered residential zones. Maintenance is overseen by local cantonment authorities to ensure upkeep of greenery and facilities. The site serves as a buffer zone between commercial urban pockets and residential cantonment blocks.

Bring a valid form of identification, as entry to Cantonment areas may occasionally require security screening.
Visit during the weekdays if you prefer a quieter atmosphere, as the park becomes significantly more crowded on weekends and holidays.
Avoid visiting during peak summer afternoons due to high heat, and refrain from bringing large bags or heavy luggage which may draw security scrutiny.
Maintain modest attire consistent with local cultural norms; keep the park clean and refrain from littering.
