We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Jovita Idar's El Progreso 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.

What runners say about Jovita Idar's El Progreso Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (19 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

It's a smaller park made for soccer. There are a few trees. The sade is mainly in the center. I would like to say they are working on it. Since I see planted trees. The trail is a big circle with a cut in between. Honestly, this is perfect for runners and walkers. It also has a bike trail.

★★★★★ — Gaby , Oct 2024

It's lovely to go for a walk there every day of the week, as it's so clean and beautiful.

★★★★★ — Karla , May 2025

Awesome place to go jog, men’s restrooms toilets need tending to. They’re not flushing properly.
