Kiest Park Kiest Park
Kiest Park spreads across 260 acres of Oak Cliff, donated to the city in the 1930s and still the largest and most-used park in southern Dallas. 3,243 Google reviews at a 4.5 average.
The basketball sits inside a park that also runs tennis, trails, ballfields, and a recreation centre with its own gym, which makes it the rare Dallas site where you can move indoors when the Texas afternoon wins.
Oak Cliff has produced a long line of Dallas basketball players, and Kiest is the neighbourhood's home ground. Evenings and weekends are when the real runs happen.

Turtle Creek Reverchon Park
Reverchon Park opened in 1915 on Maple Avenue, which makes it the oldest of the major Dallas parks, wrapped around Turtle Creek just north of downtown. 1,934 Google reviews at a 4.6 average.
The park is best known for Reverchon Field, the historic ballpark where generations of Dallas baseball was played, but the basketball courts and the recreation centre serve the surrounding Uptown and Oak Lawn neighbourhoods year-round.
The central location makes this the most convenient outdoor run for anyone staying downtown.
