Confirmed from Veterans Memorial 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.
Waterside park featuring a memorial, plus a bocce court, fitness equipment, trails & a gazebo.

I love the beautiful tribute to the members of America's Armed forces ...a great reminder of sacrifices made to grant us our Freedom. The views of the bay are fabulous. A great place to walk on wide sidewalks with spectacular views and excercise stations along the way.
This is a beautiful, hidden gem park. It is right on the water and has plenty of seating to view the water. Plenty of parking, is wheel chair friendly, and dogs are permitted but must be on a leash. Lovely memorial to service members!!! Park has a 3 gazebos, a boccio ball court, and work out equipment.
Good view of upper Tampa Bay, nice tables and benches to sit at, and places to walk along the water as well. This park is a hidden gem.
