Confirmed from Wilde 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.
Clean park for families with baseball fields, a playground and a pavilion.
What runners say about Wilde Memorial Park
“Good, clean place to walk your dog and have your kids play in the playground.”
“I'm the administrator at a local camp and our campers love to run around here and usexthe playground.”
Good mix of activities for the whole family. 2 playground areas, basketball court, pickle ball court, tennis court, street hockey area, 2 baseball diamonds, & a walking track. Trees help keep the area a bit cooler than surrounding air which is nice in this humid summer.
Large park. Large fields, walking paths, basketball & tennis courts, pavilion, playground, benches. We brought lunch & made a nice day of it.
Great place for a jog or to walk your dog. They got a baseball field, 4 tennis courts, 1 (rusty) basketball court and a hockey arena. If you go further back there is a large children's playground, a gazebo and a trail/path through a "mini forest" which isn't that long.
Great park for kids and adults. Huge grass area for baseball and I believe soccer, 2 tennis courts, roller hockey rink, recently updated playground set and a small nature path. They used to have a playground area for toddlers, but it was extremely old and run down and eventually removed... but hasn't been replaced yet.
