Confirmed from Northeast Metropolitan 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.
Large recreation space offering athletic fields, basketball & tennis courts, a skate park & more.
What runners say about Northeast Metropolitan Park
“This park has several playgrounds, all shaded with canopies.”
This is a huge park. It has everything but is king of hard to find. They have a skate park and a splash pad. The walking paths are nice and shaded. We found a nice playground almost hidden. It was by the diamonds. They has nice bathrooms.
This is such a great park. It has turf and grass soccer fields, a huge skate park, a bouldering rock, small splash pad, baseball fields, at least four playgrounds, a covered basketball court, a couple tennis courts, and will host national BMX events in the future. There are tons of walking/biking paths as well.
We didn't have a chance to explore all of the park space, but it was a fun place to visit. The only reason I give 4 and not 5 stars is because it seems to not be maintained well. All picnic tables are damaged, are warped, or unusable. Some wooden structures have exposed rusted nails.
I walked here earlier today to see if there are pickleball courts. The two tennis courts both have markings for pickleball. My wife and I will come back to play soon. The rest of the park looks very nice with playground and biking/walking paths.
