Confirmed from Lemon Grove 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.
Kid-friendly park featuring a playground, barbecue pits and basketball courts.
What runners say about Lemon Grove Park
“This park it's well maintained, with good green 💚 areas, the playground it's in good conditions, plenty of 🌳 trees, and the grass ready for a family picnic.”
“Shaded swings, ADA swing, shaded play structures, fun interactive elements, and no one else here at 10am on a Saturday.”
I love this park. I've been going here since I was a kid. Lots of parking and plenty big. They have a full basketball court and room to play football in the grass field area. Limited gazebos with more picnic tables. Big kid toys and a smaller playground. Only 2 swings with no baby swing.
Amazing park that you can seat in with your family for a pick nick. If you fancy to take a run this is the place for you. You will fill your cup with joy if you feed the ducks 😉 😀
