Confirmed from Tomahawk 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.
Clean green space featuring swings, slides and trails, along with a baseball field.

“Gorgeous walking trails that go over bridges and are shaded all around by trees.”
This is a delightful park! The playground is fun as is, but will supposedly undergo renovations this summer 2024…so keep an eye out for that. Currently it’s a great play set for ages 2-5. No bathrooms, but when we went there was one port-a-potty available which was very helpful.
Newly renovated park with lots of equipment for ages 2-12 and a nice walking trail
A wonderful place for walks, and quality time enjoying God's creation in the backyard of Leawood! Also a great place for the kiddos to play! Come and take a look!
