The MLB ballparks with the best views — Oracle Park's bay, PNC Park's skyline, Dodger Stadium's mountains, and more. A scenic-ballpark ranking from Chasing Stadiums.
The best views come from a park's relationship to its setting — a waterfront, a skyline, mountains, or a piece of history framed beyond the outfield. Oracle Park and PNC Park are the two most cited for scenery, but each of these parks offers a distinctive backdrop.
Oracle Park's bay-and-cove setting and PNC Park's skyline-and-river vista are the headliners; Dodger Stadium adds mountains and sunsets, Petco Park the walkable downtown, and Camden Yards the warehouse that launched the retro era. Which is 'best' depends on whether you prefer water, skyline, mountains, or history.
Views are best experienced in person. Use the Chasing Stadiums stadium guides to plan a visit, then rate the parks you've seen and build your own scenic ranking in your MLB Passport.
Oracle Park (San Francisco Bay) and PNC Park (Pittsburgh skyline and river) are the most frequently cited for the best views, with Dodger Stadium, Petco Park, and Camden Yards close behind.
A scenic ballpark frames its city or landscape — a waterfront, skyline, mountains, or a piece of history beyond the outfield — so the setting becomes part of the game.
