Confirmed from Jess Lucas Y-Teen 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.
Urban space that's home to concerts and events, as well as a playground and benches.
What runners say about Jess Lucas Y-Teen Park
Nice park, very well-lit after dark. The walking trail is very cushiony doesn't feel like you're walking on gravel.
Great little park. Has bathroom but they close after dark( sooo in winter months 6pm which is unfortunate). >Love the rubber paths around the park its excellent for running/jogging or walking.
Lovely little park. It was a great place to walk while waiting to pick up someone from the airport.
The walking trail is made from recycled rubber so it gives a nice, comfortable bounce when walking. 6 laps is equal to 1 mile. There are events that are hosted here that feature some local vendors. There is a small playground as well. Nice clean park.
