We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Gateway Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
High-tech urban park featuring a stage, butterfly garden, solar USB charging station & free Wi-Fi.
What runners say about Gateway Park
“Nice New , Modern, Contemporary Impressive, Clean , Gated Park with plenty of tables to sit and eat.”
“Beautiful park 🌳 Nice music 🎤🎶🎵 Christmas decorations 🎁🎋 amazing Good food😋🥣🥙.”
Great spot for families and kids. A lot of grass for field sports like soccer, volleyball and running around. You can seat on the bench or just at the grass weigh blanket. Playground has lots of entertainment for little kids as well. Plus you can ride scooter around.
Beautiful park located in Sunny Isles Beach. Huge open space for kids to run around or play ball. The playground is new and always clean. I love coming to this playground on the weekends as it is secured all around and it barely gets crowded.
Is a perfect park for all age. There are garage parking not free but pat for hour (not for all day). You can reach the beach also walking from the park. In the park there is a big green area with real grass. Perfect for a lot of game for the kids or lie down on.
A great place for children under 5 years. There is a pretty big plays at to climb. There aren't any swings though. It has a big patch of grass for running. The park also has a stage to be used in the future for events. The park still hasn't been handed over to the city by the developer.
