We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Yorkville Park and Recreation Area yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
What runners say about Yorkville Park and Recreation Area
I come here to bash RC cars and Trucks on the BMX track (I am not the only one that knows this hidden gem). Nice playground for the kids. Nice and well kept baseball / softball field. A bit of a walk from parking to the track / playground / field, but worth it.
Very well maintained park. Baseball field, jogging path, Park area, toddler park area, picnic hut, open flat fields and a BMX course.
Small playground for kids, walking paths and benches. BMX track is also located on the property.
