Walking Running Biking, Audubon Park

The oak trees, lagoons and expansive green space contribute to the beauty and tranquility of Audubon Park and are greatly appreciated by the millions who use the park for picnics, relaxing, walking, running, cycling and special events. The paved jogging track is 1.8 miles around. Here, in a densely populated neighborhood, six miles from the center of town, people can find a quiet place in a beautiful park setting away from the noise of the city.
