Confirmed from Wilcox 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 7-acre community space features a flag plaza, bandstand, basketball court & play areas.
What runners say about Wilcox Park
“While not always open in the early morning times, Lynnwood Maintenance works very hard to keep this location stocked with toilet paper and "clean smelling".”
“It has a huge field with tons of trees you can adventure though and take a walk and look at all the beautiful nature!”
“Kinda ducked off and covered by trees for some good shade.”
Beautiful park. Nice shady spots. Restrooms. Lots of space to run around or do whatever it is that you do!
This park is HUGE! It has a huge field with tons of trees you can adventure though and take a walk and look at all the beautiful nature! The playground is so much fun, it has the best tire swing and slides! The basketball court is an added bonus! Great for all ages! The bathrooms are normally always clean and tidy!
Great park for having the kids running around and a nice playground. Also has BBQ’s to get your grill on 🔥
For a "city" park, this one's pretty good. You can walk through the woods towards a hidden park on the north side or cross the street into scriber lake park.
