Confirmed from Lee Victory Recreation 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.

“Families with children will find plenty to enjoy as well, thanks to the presence of two spacious playgrounds designed to entertain kids of all ages.”

Beautiful park and so huge ! Tennis courts, basketball courts, public bathrooms that are actually open, two different playgrounds with some woods separating them with a little trail through them with picnic tables. There is also a blue angel plane on display too that was pretty cool.

★★★★★ — Decymber , May 2024

Great place to hang out for the whole family. My daughter loves to swing and we were very pleased to see many swings especially for special needs. Is so nice to see a park inclusive for all. It has an amazing playground, basketball court, tennis court ,walking trail and clean bathrooms. Dogs are permitted on a leash.

This new blue angels park is amazing. It’s is inclusive with every disability! Even sign language stuff. The material on the ground is soft and easy to get across and it has lot of seats and shade for adults!

★★★★★ — Lyndsey , Jun 2021

We absolutely LOVE this place! My daughter loves both of the playgrounds! They are huge, and offer a wide variety of activities to do. One of the things we like is that the playground in the back has a fence around it and one entrance.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
