Do you like going on walks "in" the park or "at" the park? I still confuse when I need to use "in" and "at" in some situations like this (sometimes "on" too). I've already heard people saying both way

Do you like going on walks "in" the park or "at" the park? I still confuse when I need to use "in" and "at" in some situations like this (sometimes "on" too). I've already heard people saying both ways, but I couldn't figure out the difference. Could you help me please?

Both "in the park" and "at the park" are ok. If I was picturing in my mind or describing the park as a location or destination to go to, I would use "at the park". If I was picturing in my mind walking inside or within the park, I would use "in the park".

Walks in the park. But, leaving the car at the park/on the "park". It must be why you are confusing these prepositions.

In my humble opinion, 'in' means a relatively 'big place', 'at' means a relatively 'small place'. For instance, I arrived in New York versus I arrived at a small village.

I I don't think so, italki. "There a piece of dust in the tiny box/There are a million people arrive at the football stadium."
