Confirmed from Stars And Stripes 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.
This park with a lake boasts a patriotic-themed playground plus baseball fields & a trail.
What runners say about Stars And Stripes Park
“Beautiful scenery & playground but grass/ground has a bunch of random poops from fowls & dogs, some people don't clean up after their pets.”
Stars and Stripes park is excellent. The is beside the lake Hefner. You can see the beautiful sunset from the lake shore. There is play ground for kids, shelter for picnic, bench, and bbq grill spot. It is a nice place for walking or running. There are lots of ducks in this park, kids will definitely love that.
Fun park! Lots of room to for playing. This place has been around forever, but the playground is still in great shape. I’m assuming at some point that they came in and gave it a facelift. Playground is surrounded by fields for throwing around a ball. There are restrooms and a little set up for working out/stretching.
It's a beautiful park that is surrounded by Lake Hefner. There is a playground for kids, a skate park, a workout area, plenty of benches and picnic areas. There are ducks and geese hanging around the park. Nice walking path around the park to walk around. Been going to this park since I was a kid.
Just a short 1 mile bike ride from home and so much to do. If you like walking, running, jogging, biking, boating, fishing, dog walking, skateboarding, exercising, or feeding birds and ducks, it's all here. New fitness court and skate park are positives. Love this place! Good vibes and great water views.
