Confirmed from Light 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, picnic tables, and skate park, plus facilities for disc golf, and volleyball.
What runners say about Light Park
“Always clean and we'll maintained.”
Stopped by this park on a road trip. We saw there was an event with the local minor league baseball team and a showing of the movie the Sandlot on a beautiful June evening. There is a fun little playground, plenty of open grassy space for kids to run and play, and covered picnic areas.
Great walk park. Plus if you go walk during the hours that the pool is open you get to walk to some music. Pretty chill!
This is an awesome park. It is incredibly well maintained. We enjoyed the walking trail around the park. It looked like all the equipment was new. I also was very impressed with the exercise equipment. That was pretty cool to see. If you’re in liberal, this is a great place to check out. Stretch your legs.
The park is strictly for children! It appears to range from toddlers to maybe 12 or so? All the pathways have houses piked with holes so water cools the paths. It has tons of little things for kids to do including a pirate ship fir kids to explore! (My kiddos favorite of course) lol all in all 5 stars
