A large open track perfect for walking, running, and taking the bike for a ride. There are a few benches for sitting scattered about, but the major feature of this park is the large track. Wonderful views of the field at the center of the track throughout. There is a small playground for kids at the front end of the park. No public restrooms, water fountains, or porta-potties. Great park, only complaint was the noise pollution of the traffic, but that almost seems inevitable in the city.
This park is great! Its smaller than the other parks around its area, but it has a nice jogging trail with a small playground for kids. I went around 3pm and the park was near empty with 5 to 6 people there at a time. If you want to get a nice social distance jog, come early. This is one of those whole in a wall parks that you wont notice until you drive by it. The value may go down as people start discovering it and it gets crowded, but right now its my favorite park to jog. Wish I would have found this peaceful gem a long time ago.
Sunset beautiful from east side of 1.13 mile, circular track (hiking/biking). Tree lined on west side of park. Understand Mike Driscoll Park is a flood control bowl with a cement spillway on the north side, & a small kiddie park (S.E. corner). Entrance & Exit are on south bound Houston West Center Rd (east of Dairy Ashford) 200 yards north of limited parking under the Westpark Tollway. /// /// Traffic lights at Westpark Tollway Are Complex / Pay Attention. Sorry about compass descriptions.
The park was decent. A nice feature was that parking is under the tollway so theres shade. If I could suggest improvements it would be to take advantage of the big field the loop surrounds and add pond or lake or some other attractions to make it look nicer because right now its just a big field of dead grass and trees. Also water fountains, bathrooms, etc. But overall, it is a decent park to get some exercise at.
Didnt get shot...no one asked me for money.
Beautiful, clean and serene park. But way too much bugs. It is overpopulated with Mosquitoes
The trail is decent the childrens area needs upkeep and cleaning
A nice open park thats great for cycling or jogging. The loop is just over a mile and is mostly flat except for a dip near the bayou
Always a good walk here, or run..... open space, clean, convenient area.... Harris County Pct. 5 constables always in the area.....
Lots of trees, if there were water fountains and at least one bathroom it would be perfect.
Best for walking and running. Good car park
Peaceful, clean, attenders are very helpful kudos
This park is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life. Under the westpark tollway its surprisingly quiet and a nice spot to bring your kids if they are younger. Has a nice walking trail around the storm pond as well. Do be careful with following the rules of the park and road though as the constable who patrols the tollway loves to sit in the parking area and give out tickets.
Place is always a good place to go for a walk.
Nice place but needs more security guards, for the welfare of the children
My church hosted our Easter picnic here this Easter would make it the third time, the park is clean and spacious, it also has play area for kids and a cool water place.
Small little park with kids play area. There is a walking trail around the park to walk, run, and jogging. Beautiful scenic view with lots of greenery.Most of the areas around the park is clean and well-maintained. Average vehicle park, and the interesting thing is the parking area is under a highway flyover.
Very nice... Open with great view!
Fun place to enjoy a nice walk
I would not consider this a true park, since I believe its primary purpose is as a water reservoir, and secondary purpose is a park. It has a very small fenced playground for younger kids and an excellent 1.2 mile paved trail around the reservoir for walking and running. I applaud its dual purpose function, but be advised that it does not have water fountains or restrooms.
Has a nice walking trail!!
Best place for Walker, runners and bikers, the kid play ground is amazing.
Love this park except when it rains a lot and gets flooded.
Beautifull and clean park
This is a nice quiet place to walk. Not crowded at all. Its amazing how the city provides dog bags, but dog owners still refuse to pick up after their dogs, unbelievable! Nothing worse than the ones who let their dogs poop ON the trail. Why, when there is grass on both sides! Someone got sick and instead of turning slightly to the grass, threw up right on the trail, disgusting!
No shade all around is just for jogging
Love it!!!!! So clean and nice and the track is the perfect length.
Its a nice park for short walks after a long day at work.
Great place to walk.
Foul sewage smell from plant across the street was too much this morning... Shortened my activity.
Love it here. The trail is a nice walk. I do wish it had restrooms.
Great park for walking and for kids highly recommend
The park is clean, the trail is very smooth. Family oriented no riffraff. Feels very safe.
A great addition to the western side of Houston! The playground is in good condition and is gated, the parking lot is covered, and the walking route is large and offers a pleasant view of nature. No bathrooms are to be found here, which makes this a little tough to visit for long periods of time.
Each loop is a little over a mile. The track is in good condition and its pretty safe. it would help if they added a water fountain for those hot summer days. Great spot if you dont want to drive all the way out to Memorial Park
Is a cool park but the only problem is theres no restroom.
I really like this park. Its about 1.1-1.2 miles for a lap. The only thing I wish was that there was a water fountain.
Nice small park, parking is under westpark tollway. No restrooms there, play area for kids. No water fountains and during the summer not many large trees for shade a long the pathway.
Clean nice park
My favorite park to walk and exercise. Very simple and open air.
Nice and green and quiet good oplace to run
Hard to find parking spot. But nice Park.
Great place for exercise!
I am a cyclist & its a good distance AROUND 1x & I enjoy that!! It has a big nice place for the CHILDREN to play so They do not run all around the path. It pretty much a quiet park except the traffic doing to & from the TOLLWAY. I ENJOY EVERYTIME I RIDE!!!
It well kept and noone bothers you while you walk.
Good track for running or simply walking, but not much else.
A great park to get in a quick workout.
I love how most of the parking is covered here under the westpark tollway. Nothing beats getting into a car that isnt hotter than Houston already is. Each lap is a little over a mile so its easy to track your speed and progress here with having to hold any apps open.
Nice park!!
Like it nice trail and fence in playground
What a blessing for me and the family.
A small park with enough parking,kids play area and not crowded for runners.
Nice place to go
Not crowded, pet friendly, clean and quiet.
This park is great for the whole familys, pets, kids its a straight hiking trail, cool place to really enjoy your workout.
Sundays at 6 pm are perfect for toddlers
Well kept, quite, pet friendly & a great place for visit. Time can pass away so fast just relaxing here.
This park will be great in a few years when the trees get a chance to grow
Great park, but need some street light at the parking area, we dont want any kids get hit by vehicle.
Nice park for both older and young kids.
Great!!
Its a nice 1 mile path that has a little park for children at the entrance. Theres also a pond/lake next to the path and theres an incredible breeze that comes from it. I took pics that I posted.
Its a decent place in weekend mornings, needs restrooms
Perfect for late night runners,!!!And big park.Trail Length: 1.13 miles
Great
Such a wonderful place...very clean, peaceful and well put together. No restrooms, long trail
I got there to walk and jog and get some tanning. I like that I can park my car in the shade below the bridge. Keeps it cool in summer. The park has a children area and usually you see other people on the track.
Nice park but very young anxious to see when the trees grow bigger
Nice and relax place for jogging, picnic or just to have a nice and quiet book reading on the park.
Great walking trail for the area, clean and well kept. There is a small playground there as well.
Its ok ok park...
Great park has a long oval shaped trail which is great for burning those calories.
Excellent park for kite flying and jogging.
Great Quiet place to run or walk!
Good
No water when I came in December, disappointed. Pretty small, and walked one round, and it is just over 1 mile.
Nice walking area. Very clean
Lovely place to go and walk. Kids can have fun at the playground.
Great place to unwind, while your kiddos tire out! Nice, clean park.
Wonderful workout!!
Not too bad of a park. Lots of lakes and stuff like that
Nice, quite walking park, also has a playground for the kids
Great park for exercise walk it everyday does anybody know the distance around?
Very good, wonderful!!!
Great equipment, space and good for strolling
Park is getting out of control. Cant take the kids there. Not when there is weed smoking in the parking lot.
Great place to come and exercise.
Love the trail!! Clean park!!
Calm and short distance trail for the convenience.
Wish the playground had a tarp over the play area
