Confirmed from Lexington Avenue 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.
Park with a playground and a splash pad, plus a slide and ropes course.
What runners say about Lexington Avenue Park
“It's always clean and has good people that go there.”
“Not only does it offer a splash pad for people of all ages, the playground is truly unique.”
Within walking distance of Danville High, bowling alley, Sav-A-Lot area. Good park For the little ones, splash pad as well.
I remember the old park that used to be here at the exact location so it's nice to have a new park in Danville. She turns two July 4th and the smaller park off to the side is perfect for her, the swings are also low enough for short mothers. Not to mention I heard rumors of a splash pad being added?
Trail conditions & character
“Not a lot of parking but I think you can park at the church next door if it's not in session.”
