Confirmed from Leftwich 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.
Outdoor area with picnic tables and a playground, plus a lake and ducks.
What runners say about Leftwich Park
“Very nice, neat and well maintained park.”
“Talkington sun n fun is in walking distance, with lots of trees for shade and picnics and also there's a playground and the park is very large lots of acreage.”
“Very Beautiful and Peaceful park especially when just getting out of church.”
Very nice improvements in recent decades are done. The cinder walking trail has less dog poo than many parks in the ordinance lacking lubbock . Use a flashlight in evening hours.
It is beautiful and very clean. I would definitely take my kid's as well as alone and walk the little trail.
It was really nice. The pond was big and full of geese and ducks. I didn’t see a walking path unless they’re thinking walking through the neighborhoods is a path. I didn’t see a picnic area or restrooms. I had my 3 dogs and they loved the wide open space.
Very Beautiful and Peaceful park especially when just getting out of church. You get to sit or walk and ponder on what the message was about that your pastor had just preached on. My Babies as well enjoyed the moment as we spent together.
