Confirmed from Palm Aire Village 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 playground and tennis courts in addition to a barbecue area.
What runners say about Palm Aire Village Park
“Palm Aire Village Park is a small, clean neighborhood park featuring a playground, basketball court, open grassy areas, and shaded spots for relaxing.”
“It’s great for kids, casual sports, and quiet outdoor time.”
This park was near where I had lunch so I came over to walk around and get some fresh air and exercise as I digested lunch. You can find the park near the entrance to Calvary Chapel Christian Academy. This park was dedicated in 2003. I was surprised by how much was packed into its 3.26 acres.
Cool park...Big playground for the kids, volleyball, 2 racquet ball courts, 2 basketball full courts, nice place to walk or run
This is a great place to visit has a play ground for your kids and a volleyball net and a full size basketball court for the sport enthusiasts in your group has a charcoal grill and plenty of seating for large groups under the gazebo public bathrooms and a path to do your power walking around the outskirts of the park
Nice little park in the uptown area of Fort Lauderdale. The park is small, but has a lot packed inside. There is a beach volleyball net, two open racquetball courts, a playground, and two full size basketball courts. There is a small walking path around the park, and there is also a pavilion with a large BBQ grill.

“Would love to give 5 STARS, but the restrooms REALLY NEED TO BE UPGRADED OR REPAIRS NEED TO BE MADE!”
“It’s great for kids, casual sports, and quiet outdoor time.”
