This is a nice park to get a morning or afternoon walk ( wouldn't go there at night). It has a paved trail and then some dirt trails to get to the creek. Some places were cleaner than others but nothing that bad. It has benches in different spots, also saw a few picnic tables. Walked upon a few murals and of course lots of graffiti and street art specially under bridges but I didn't mind. I would say it a perfect park to walk your pets since there weren't many people around.
Walked the portion from Tabor to Godfrey. Benches were concentrated in one section close to the road with passing traffic which could have been better placed to be in a quieter place that is more relaxing. A buildup of trash, including used bed mattresses and shopping carts, in some areas. Nice to sit near the creek and hear the water pass.
If you like nature and all that it has to offer this might be the place for you. The park has a paved walkway which makes walking and biking easier. There are many places to sit and think or watch animals. I suggest that you stay out of the water though. It’s really not a swimming spot. It’s better maintained and feels safer than before.
Love it, feels a little sketchy but great length from tip to tip 3 miles ish and almost entirely shaded with lots of cool tunnels and bridges. Warning feels very isolated, and many people ride dirt bikes and quads so it can be dangerous peak season
It’s a nice place for a walk and certain areas are clean enough for a dip. Depending on which part of the park you go it changes my personal opinion due to cleanliness but overall it’s a great place to forget your in the city!
Great area, looking for birds and plants to identify as a hobby for elderly and adults with their children in learning too.
It's not too bad... The park is amazing but my son was on the juniata Park area and was playing and almost picked up a needle, God almighty that was bad... A lot of people and music and no grills allowed, some ghetto-ness going on idk but I had a decent time the kids had a blast hood spot to picnic or let the kids run around and play
