Confirmed from Byron "Buddy" Stewart 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.
Scenic area on Lake Pat Cleburne with fishing, sports facilities, hiking trails & picnic tables.

“Well maintained park lovely for walking and fishing.”
“Very shaded with a pleasant breeze.”
“I love coming here at night to relax and clear my head—it's rarely crowded and very peaceful.”
Well maintained park lovely for walking and fishing. No bathroom and no playground
Great place to walk along the river and see nature. For those who find uneven terrain the concrete walks along the river and throughout the park are great. Good birding with the only negative being the noise from Highway 67
Great location to go for a walk. Fishing along the river. Sidewalks. Great photo opportunities. 🩷✌️
A nice place grate out doors for your kids just to get out side If you like to fish all kinds s of fun If you like to walk good for that two Take some duck food ( not bread ) Feed the ducks
