Confirmed from Reese McCord 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.
Family-friendly open space with a playground and picnic tables, plus a baseball field.
What runners say about Reese McCord Park
“Doggie waste bags are supplied regularly, very well kept, provides a great service to the community.”
“Id say I anything, add more benches or tables with the canopy on top and especially near the jungle gym area for the kids to have shade to be in, especially with this heat.”
Great park for soccer, baseball and walking with a nice playground and swing set.
Clean park, nice park to go for a jog, play basketball, baseball/softball and enjoy the outdoors.
I've only been there for my grandkids' baseball games. But didn't have any problems. If there was any 1 issue, it would be parking? But even during the busiest games, I was always able to find parking. I would say this about pretty much all the parks in El Paso...
I walk my dogs here. Hardly any stickers on grass. Other parks are loaded with stickers. It's clean here. Always enjoy the shaded trees. Family oriented and pet friendly.
Trail conditions & character
“Especially if you're walking a dog or for those who have little ones who tumble or anything.”
“It's a long walk from parking to to the play area, they have good assortment of playground equipment, and watch out for lots of stickers in the grass.”
“Id say I anything, add more benches or tables with the canopy on top and especially near the jungle gym area for the kids to have shade to be in, especially with this heat.”
“Park is always clean and easily accessible from main roads.”
