Confirmed from PBS Pinchback 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.
Park featuring basketball courts and baseball fields, plus a playground.

Nice park !! I usually go to Cockrell on Pines Rd, but after 40 years of the same park, thought we would try something new. The walking trail at Pinchback is nice and even. My watch clocked it at almost ¼ mile around. There are trees enough to provide some shade at most times of the day.
Nice park, quiet, clean, walking trail and basketball courts, plenty of covered seating with grills, covered playground for the kids and restrooms. Will come again soon.
Beautifully newly remodeled park. Great play area. Wonderful walking trails. Definitely worth a visit! Especially with the family.
There's a nice small walking trail that's probably a little less than a mile to walk but you can do so multiple times. Large nice baseball field that you can reserve ahead of time. I saw at least 2 basketball courts. Updated playground equipment for kids a couple covered areas to use for gatherings. Very nice.
