Confirmed from Washington 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.
Relaxed, spacious playground and skate park, plus a baseball field and basketball courts.
What runners say about Washington Park
Another one of Perth Amboy's great baseball/softball field. It has good seating both for home and visiting fans. There is a children's playground, a skate park and basketball courts. There is also a black top walking trail for walkers and visitors to get around park.
Good place to relax, walk & watch the kids play & also watch a baseball game & can't for the skate park.
I lived 1 minute (walking) away from it and go almost every other day in summer
