From the reviews

…For some reason ours like to walk the track, so I limp and hobble along side them. Also, the playground equipment is kept in top shape from what I've seen so far.

★★★★★ — Chris, May 2022

…The track is .9miles, but it's a lovely safe place to walk

★★★★★ — Melody, Feb 2020

…The park has been here my whole life, and the track was added while I was still in school. There is enough space for plenty of people without being in other's personal space. You can walk, jog, walk a small dog, push a stroller, and even roller blade your way thru the park

★★★★★ — Brandy, Jun 2022

…Not to mention the pokemon go locations make it even more inticing to go for jogs along the track hatching eggs, collecting items as you pass the stop and gym and wide area for hunting pokemon.
