This park offers a well-designed outdoor activity space within an urban area that supports biking and running, appealing to local fitness enthusiasts.

Went for a run here with Strong Together Run Club. The trail was a nice difficulty with gradual hills and a view from the bridge that crosses the intracoastal waterway. Would definately come back, connects to the trail behind Bark Park North if you want to bring a dog.
