Halleck Park

Halleck Park Address:
Halleck St and South Beadle St
Papillion Nebraska
Park Size: Medium. Lagoon Size 4 Acres



Halleck Park in Papillion, Nebraska is a medium sized park with an abundance of blacktopped trails wandering beneath mature trees. Benches are conveniently located in many spots next to the trails for those that wish to pause and enjoy the setting.



A nice four acre lagoon has a concrete trail circling it. A short bridge leads to a small island in the lagoon.

Schwer Recreation Area

Schwer Recreation Area Address
702 W Centennial Road
Papillion Nebraska
Park Size: Unspecified Acres (medium sized park). Lagoon Size: Unspecified




Schwer Recreation Area is a nice park in Papillion, complete with quite a large lagoon, picnic shelters, barbecues, an acceptable bathroom, playground, and well constructed trails.

We observed and talked to several people fishing, and they didn’t have any luck the day we were there, but remember, a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work.



A fairly wide and smooth concrete trail circles the lagoon at Schwer Recreation Area. The trail does have a couple hills on it, not high, but hills nonetheless.

There is a drinking fountain outside the bathroom near the parking lot.
