Weequahic Park

Much human trash in a natural environment, couldn't enjoy the place, because everything was covered by plastic pieces everywhere. What a pity, it is a great place to share with family, but needs love from its visitors.

Great park to go birding, exercise or hang out/ Punic. Lots of family friendly places for the kids to run around and play. Only have visited during weekdays when it’s quiet and lots of parking. I recommend it for those hot summer days to go lay out a blanket and rest while the breeze blows and keeps one relatively cool.

I live right up the street from this park. It's awesome. these pics are right across from the golf course. When I went done under the overpass to get the shots of the track I discovered the graffiti. enjoy

I found myself at Weequahic Park today for my son's football tournament. The turf field was really nice. No seating so be prepared to bring your own chair. During a long break I decided to explore. I went for a walk using the walking path and discovered just how beautiful the park is. There are so many stations along the path for kids to play or exercise. I was able to capture a beautiful picture of the lake halfway through the walk. The entire loop around the path was about 2.5 miles. I know some reviews say the park is dirty and I must agree it needs some care but I see that as a great opportunity for some community volunteers to set up an event and get some local families and kids together to help clean up the park. There really is such great potential. I can't wait to visit again and see it during full bloom.

I always thought of Weequahic park as an iffy place to visit given the high crime rates of the surrounding areas, but truth has it that it's gotten MUCH MUCH better. The walking path is a little chewed up and can trip any avid jogger so be warned. The police presence is heavy, the sheriff is always nearby and ensures the park stays empty after 10 pm. Not a place you can go to at a late hour, cops will stop near you and question you.
