Confirmed from Victor 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.
A 40-acre city park with an aquatic center, lit baseball fields & tennis courts plus a playground.
What runners say about Victor Park
“The bathrooms were very clean and it's right off the expressway.”
“Would enjoy more benches for parents with enough shade for kids to sit and enjoy a break.”
It's an open space where my dog loves to run and make new friends. I would give it 5 stars, however the "obstacle course" is not up to par and pet owners don't always pick up after their dogs.
Always a great weekend stop for my kids. Beautiful peaceful environment. Would enjoy more benches for parents with enough shade for kids to sit and enjoy a break. Restrooms are a bit far but other than that, I reccomend this park.
great place to walk dogs play park for kids event center. plenty of bathrooms and walking trail . tennis center courts n indoor swimming pool , has big memorial for VETERANS OF ALL WARS
Great park, even tho was hot. They did have some shaded areas, and the breeze was good. We also visited the dog park and was huge with water and shade available too.
