Confirmed from El Alamo 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.
Picnic & park areas can be reserved at this park with restrooms, playgrounds & a splash pad.
What runners say about El Alamo Park
Have to post simply because the three star review makes no sense. The park is large and spacious with plenty of shade and picnic tables. The children's playground is unique. It's not your traditional swing and slide module. Plus, there is a small area with water rings and water fountains for kids to run through.
Love this park! It's become a great hangout for us. There is a playground, a splash pad, and a horseshoe area. It is also a good park to walk or jog around.
