Confirmed from McBean Memorial 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.
Relaxed park featuring a play area with swings, a sandbox and a skateboard park, as well as a pool and a fenced-in playground.
What runners say about McBean Memorial Park
“The restrooms were adequate, but not super clean, but remember a lot of people besides us was there, so I still give it 5 stars”
“I really envy those who live near this park, you are lucky to have the opportunity to often visit such a beautiful place with children.”
Very enjoyable experience I had with my dog walking on the grass and under the many trees on this 100 degree day. Children's extensive playground set, horseshoe area, baseball fields and many grills for the public.
Nice park to bring the kids and animals, lots of open space. Also a great place to start a run 👍
The best kept secret in Lincoln! True Americana at its finest. Every seat in the house offers a great view; bleacher seats are shaded for night games too. GA bleacher seats are great but for a few bucks more, get the assigned seats with a back.
Great place to watch a college league game with the Lincoln Potters. They have great food and beverages. Most games they have a vegan hotdog and shaved ice. Saturday nights they often have fireworks and the kids get to run the bases.

“Don't park in the stadium parking lot as that's where most foul balls end up.”
