Lake Zorinsky in Omaha is such a great outdoor spot -- so clean and well-maintained, with plenty of…read morespace for biking, walking, and enjoying the lake views. One of the highlights is the new fully inclusive playground -- it's thoughtfully designed with ramps, wheelchair-accessible swings, and fun features for kids of all abilities, making it a great destination for families. Cyclists will appreciate the addition of air and tools for on-the-fly bike repairs, which makes stopping here even more convenient. I also love the recent trail improvements at 168th Street -- the updated sections make riding and walking around the park feel smoother and safer. Whether you're out for a spin, a stroll, or a family day, Lake Zorinsky is a must-visit outdoor escape in West Omaha!

There are miles and miles of paved trails and lots of access points. It's definitely busier than some other area lakes, but I don't mind that.

I highly recommend you take a visit!

It is a very large area spanning from Blondo to the inner state with many different trails and paved paths. The reason I'm more of a 4 vs. a 5 is because paths aren't super clearly marked and it will change from paved, to wood chips, to gravel. A bonus if you need a place to hang with your pet is that they allow dogs!

The best part is there's a large green space surrounding the park so if you're worried about the littles running, they have a long time before they get up the hill and to the streets.

We are trying to enjoy a walk and get bothered by a dog not on a leash, come on people NO leashes on them Running loose with the owners at the park with them not paying attention to the laws of Omaha State parks. Your dog needs to be leashed not let loose running around I never seen a Nebraska Humane Society truck patrolling the park for dogs without leashes or police vehicles or Park ranger vehicles this park is going to go down quick if it is not maintained with some type of supervision there are people drinking alcohol and breaking bottles in the park, and in the park on the grass With their cars and pick up trucks destroying the landscape. Something has to be done, When will someone step in like maybe the mayor of Omaha and get this taken care of or is this another part of Omaha that they just don't care about? Someone step up and save our park from the hoodlums racing up and down the road, crashing into trees and one other thing that really bothers me is the exit leaving the park in between the hills the cars fly by there and there is going to be a accident at the intersection leaving the Park on 132nd. People fly up and down that street and the people coming out of the park are not aware of how fast the traffic is really traveling and there is going to be a bad accident. Mayor of Omaha, please fix these problems. Signed very concerned citizen of Omaha.
