Confirmed from Zephyr 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.
Park with picnic and play areas, a pond, tennis courts, a walking path, and a splash pad.
What runners say about Zephyr Park
“Pretty cool place the lake is beautiful and on certain days you can sit back and watch military helicopters fly nearby (pics included).”
“The city notes it has a lakeside fitness path, fishing access, picnic areas, and a peaceful shaded setting across 34 acres, which is exactly why it works so well for sunsets.”
“Between the fishing dock, open grass, and quiet lakeside path, it gives you space to either sit and think or create content that actually looks good on camera.”
Lovely park l very much enjoy the walking here, love that it has workout equipment throughout the park. When l walk here, l enjoy the water and birds. The park has a beautiful area with benches and memorial honoring veterans.
We love this park. Nice walking path around the pond with lots of wildlife.
Nice little Park I love the Gazebo to play guitar. Excellent Acoustics. It has a little water park and bathroom facility very close it also has other gazebos on far side of the lake. There's also workout stations around the walking path that surrounds the lake. Very nice
Nice, clean park for walking, exercises on the course throughout, and two playgrounds. There is a seasonal splash pad, pickleball courts, pavilion, and restrooms. Bring some food for the many birds and squirrels.

“The lake catches the light perfectly, the walking path gives you multiple angles, and the old oak trees make everything feel cinematic right before golden hour.”
