Runway Bike Park is one of the best free bike parks in Northwest Arkansas — a 2.75-acre playground for riders of every age and skill level at The Jones Center in Springdale. Built around a smooth Velosolutions pump track, three progressive skill lines, and a kids’ bicycle playground, it’s a blast on a bike, a balance bike, or even a skateboard or scooter.
About Runway Bike Park
Part of The Jones Center campus, Runway packs a lot into a compact, welcoming space. The paved pump track lets you build momentum without pedaling by “pumping” the rollers and berms; the skill lines progress from beginner to advanced with rollers, jumps, and features; and the bicycle playground is a safe spot for the littlest riders to learn. It’s a favorite for families, new riders, and experienced cyclists working on their skills.
