Confirmed from Lookout 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.
Lake area featuring trails and a 9-hole disc golf course.
What runners say about Lookout Park
“No boat ramp which is great, keeps the waters quiet and calm.”
Nice park with fields for sports, swings, tables, frisbee golf, and tables. If there are sports playing, parking will be impossible. There are walking/biking trails all around.
Good access to the lake to launch canoes, kayaks, or paddle boards. No boat ramp which is great, keeps the waters quiet and calm. From the parking lot it's a steady downhill walk of approx 75 yards to the lake. There are two restrooms near the parking lot that were very clean and in good condition.
There is a 9 hole disc golf course. It's all open with no trees. Very little beach at all. Good place to walk around.
Really sick little walking trail with some dope elevation changes. The disc golf park is a scenic gem and my hugest shoutouts to whoever installed the grass tee-pads, that was a really nice add on!
