John Prince Park — Attraction in Florida

Named after Lake Worth pioneer John Prince this 726 acre park situated around lake Osborne is huge! It is so big it has three entrances. This park literally has it all, a 1 mile long fitness trail with 20 exercise stations, 4 basketball court, a 4.5 mile long bicycle/ running/ hiking path, boat ramps, dog park, fitness zone with 17 pieces of outdoor exercise equipment, fishing, 1/2 mile nature trail, picnic pavilions, tables and grills, 4 playgrounds, a splash park, 3 softball fields, 8 tennis courts, and 2 grass and 6 sand volleyball courts.

I came to enjoy the walking path. It winds along the picturesque Lake Osborne which is 378 acres. I parked at the playground with the splash park and headed to my right and ended at the outdoor fitness zone before turning around and heading back. The walk was beautiful and I saw a lot of birds and other wildlife along the lake. The only part I didn't like was having the cyclists rushing within inches of me at high speeds. Even though I tried to stay to the edge of the path I feel like I had some close calls. There were also a lot of homeless folks everywhere in this park. No one bothered me but it seems sad that this is the best West Palm Beach can do for it's most vulnerable community members.

This park is so large it would take more than one visit to fully explore it. After my walk I drove around a bit until the road ended for cars. I was trying to find out if there was a path that did a full loop around the lake. I am still not sure if the 4.5 mile bike/ walk path only goes in one direction or of it loops back to where you started. I tried to ask some runners who seemed to indicate the path was one way. I can go 5 miles out but another 5 back would be pushing it for me which is why I prefer looping trails. If I lived closer I would be here all the time. This is a great park for the residents...
