Confirmed from Riverside 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.
Kid-friendly park featuring a playground and disc golf.
What runners say about Riverside Park
“Good clean part for a family outing.”
“This park is gorgeous and a beautiful place to relax on a hot day.”
It's a hidden gem for Victoria. Very larger park. Has public golf course. Tons of picnic benches. Three frisbee disc golf courses. Baseball field. Volleyball courts. Kids playgrounds. Tons of trees and just great to go ride or walk the trail. Pebble beach is a great place to go chill next to the Guadalupe River.
Wonderful City Park - incredible for a town this size! Great new large dog park, tons of sidewalks for running/walking, lots of picnic tables throughout the park; beautiful duck "pond", lots of sports fields, historic home with birding deck in the back, a lovely memorial rose garden, a golf course, and much more!
I love this park. Hiking here and enjoying God’s nature is wonderful. The river is amazing, peaceful, and the city keeps the grass cut and everything tidy. It’s also quite natural. It’s definitely my favorite park.
