Washington Park in located near Denver South High School is the perfect spot for a run, walk, or an afternoon picnic!

This is also a family-friendly destination with a playground for the kids and designated parking lots. Keep an eye out for cyclists using the trails as well.
This loop is dog friendly on-leash.

Washington Park Loop Reviews
My favorite place to run. Plently of parking either in the lot or surrounding streets. Always full of families, dogs, run clubs, etc. Great environment to push you. Easy loop trail!!

Perfect place to rollerblade! It was not crowded on a monday late morning/early afternoon. There’s plenty of space for slower skaters and smooth, even terrain.

I mean, whats not to love about Wash Park? Its a Denver staple and a great spot for strolling basically at any time of day/year. Last weekend my partner & I caught a surprise sighting of two eagles perched high in a tree by the west side of the pond! Always lots of dogs out and about for walks. Easy parking all around. Wide, paved walking/biking roadways as well as some well-maintained dirt paths you can optionally explore. Some cute spots to grab brunch if you wanter just a few blocks off the park.
