Confirmed from Hawkeye 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.
Wooded park with baseball fields and tennis courts.
What runners say about Hawkeye Park
“Well kept with a playground, baseball field, tennis courts, walking loop, a pavilion with electricity, and a restroom building.”
“It's a beautiful place to come and take a stroll 😍🌹”
Six different benches (two under shady trees) around the playground area which makes supervision easy and the playground is great for abilities 2-12 years old. The walking path is stroller and wheelchair friendly as long as you can handle mild elevation. Beautifully kept and clean!
My family was traveling with our dog and stopped at at an easy access gas station along the way home but out dog (and our kids) needed to get out and walk, get some water and have a chance to play to break up our long car ride.
Simple local park. Well kept with a playground, baseball field, tennis courts, walking loop, a pavilion with electricity, and a restroom building. The restrooms are locked off season. In winter when the trees are bare you can see the nearby Hindu temple very clearly, a view that is hard to catch from any other angle.
This park has a little of everything! Great space for a party or fun with the family. They have bathrooms with running water during spring - fall seasons, playgrounds for little and big kids, a walking track, huge covered pavilion, basketball court and baseball fields.
