Confirmed from Lake Sacajawea 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.
Sprawling lake-themed park with a Japanese garden, walking paths, playgrounds and trees with interpretive signs.
What runners say about Lake Sacajawea Park
“This gem of a park boasts a well-maintained walking path around the lake, several playgrounds and ducks galore—who don’t seem bothered at all by visitors.”
“This was a gorgeous, large park that we enjoyed walking around.”
“Mostly quiet except for the fourth of July fireworks week, live music in the park on Thursdays evenings in the summer, and the occasional geese.”
Beautiful fall colors! This is the perfect time to go walk around the lake and look at all the colors of the trees that are changing. Don't forget to take your camera! And, as fall passes, the trees and foliage get more brilliant in their colors! So don't just go once...🍂🍁🍂
One of the few parks that is designed similar to what I've visited in Europe. Lots of picturesque and breath-taking views, wonderful playground, and we spotted a juggler, otters, ducks, people without masks (95%), few interesting sculptures and nice walking paths. What a gem!
Great place for walking, jogging, kyaking, fishing, and a picnic. The fall and spring times have the most amazing colors. There are three different play grounds for different ages of kids.
Beautiful lake in the middle of city. Very good bank access plenty of free parking. Very nice walking trails. Playgrounds for the kids. Picnic tables and benches . Great park for the whole family. I fished 2 days once for bluegill with kids. Came back the next day to bass fish no luck either time.
