Parkwood Park in Joliet spans 47 acres and includes a 2.5-mile paved trail that loops through open fields and wooded sections. The trail connects directly to the Old Plank Road Trail, allowing residents extended routes for walking, running, and cycling. The park features multiple playgrounds with equipment for various age groups, two lighted baseball diamonds, a soccer field, and six tennis courts. A fishing pond stocked with bluegill and largemouth bass sits near the main parking area, while a 30-acre wetland area attracts migratory birds. The park is located one mile from the Louis Joliet Mall and two miles from downtown Joliet, placing residents within a short drive of shopping, dining, and the Metra station for Chicago commuters. Restroom facilities and drinking fountains are positioned along the main trail loop, and the park maintains regular hours from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
