We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Oliver Eakle Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
What runners say about Oliver Eakle Park
“Very clean, one of my favorite spots in Amarillo for my husband and I”
“It's small, quiet, and tucked away in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Amarillo.”
This is a classic for me! I've been coming here throughout the years and it has become a very nice park to visit. My daughter and come to this park for the nice quiet cozy atmosphere. 😌 The neighborhood is beautiful and everyone is nice when met on the walking path.
I absolutely love this park. It's small, quiet, and tucked away in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Amarillo. Awesome place to walk my dog. In the summer there's a water fountain you can sit next to and enjoy.
Good spot to park and walk around kinda small only the size of a really small city block
Nice neighborhood park for walking/jogging or relaxing. Centered by a large fountain, so it's a good spot to hear water in the city. A number of the elms are dying and one of the rose sections is completely dead. Like most city parks, lush during rainy seasons, but full of weeds during all seasons.
