Confirmed from Flamingo 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.

“This is a safe park with entertaining adventures for children of all ages.”

Nice little part with great basketball and walking/running amenities! Park is always very clean and filled with people using their community park.

★★★★★ — Dante , Mar 2022

This park is amazing! The splash pad is clean, there are shaded benches, water guns, floor spouts, a huge bucket that spills every 5 or so minutes, and run through sprayers. This park actually drains (unlike Plantation woods after their remodeling) and the water is warm.

★★★★★ — Chrystina , May 2022

Very cool sport complex park a half a quarter mile away from my home. I really like coming here to do my daily jog/ run. This park has a soccer field, some baseball diamonds and a coup basketball courts, so everyone can come and play. There’s even a small playground for the little ones too.

★★★★★ — David , Feb 2022

Renovation is done, now you can enjoy field, playground, splash park and swings even for a walk, run, jog or ride a bike. Perfect for family.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
