Karenpark is a suburb of Akasia in Gauteng, South Africa. It is situated to the north west of the Pretoria CBD and at the south western corner of Akasia.
It used to be a predominantly Afrikaans speaking suburb for many young white residents, but the demography has changed since the end of apartheid in 1994.
