Confirmed from Bicentennial 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.
City recreation area featuring walking trails, athletic fields & playground spaces.
What runners say about Bicentennial Park
“It is always clean and the residents of Livonia truly appreciate it ❤️”
“Very new, with lots of climbing, hiding spots, a bit of shade, and ADA gear.”
Bicentennial park is the real gem! It has nature trails, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, fitness areas, playgrounds and so much more. I can say for the last 20 years Livonia has always done their job to maintain this park in every way! It is always clean and the residents of Livonia truly appreciate it ❤️
We love bringing our Togo meals to bicentennial Park especially The breakfast club. We want to start a new tradition every Sunday to come to this park with The breakfast club. They have amazing sandwiches.
A beautiful, well-maintained park (I should know 😉) with plenty of amenities, including baseball and softball diamonds, soccer fields, tennis courts, a dog park, pavilions, a baby park, a kids park (Ben Celani), a workout area, and unfortunately courts for that annoying AF pickle ball.
Really nice activity and sports field park. Has a smaller dense wooded area for mild hiking of 1/2-3/4 mile trails that interconnect. Wish the dense woods got allocated more land compared to giant golf course nearby which hiking trails butt but against. Very clean and well kept park.
