Confirmed from Audubon Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Local park with tennis & basketball courts, biking & jogging paths & playgrounds.
What runners say about Audubon Park
“They have swings for the kids and as u walk the path u can get into adult swings while looking at a gorgeous clean lake 😊”
“Huge open spaces to do whatever activity you like as well ad the ponds and the ducks are a beautiful touch of nature.”
“Has a walking trail with trees to provide shade and a beautiful view of the lake.”
“Grass is getting a little long and playground equipment very hot, especially the slide but overall nice quiet park compared to others in the area.”
Really appreciate this park. The lack of trails to go on a jog with my dogs is very slim in the Homestead/FL City area, but thankfully this park has not been an issue. The Park employee for the county has been super nice and welcoming --I need to get his name so I can add it here.
I was surprised to find this little park 5 min away from my house, very quiet and lovely. The lake and trees makes it very cozy. There's something for every age, for the littlest ones the tiny swings and for toddlers the play area, there's a basketball court and sidewalks for whoever wants to walk.
We have loved this park for a very long time. There is plenty of room for good fun, a nice playground, a long path for walking, running, biking or skating and a field large enough to fly kites. The established trees give shade and the lake makes for a lovely view.
For a very chill, relaxing, and uncrowded vibe this is a park for you and the family. Basketball court, tennis court, play sets for not only the bigger kids but a separate one for toddlers are here at the park.
