The park occupies land that was once the site of the Sociedade Paulista de Trote, a horse racing track established in the 1940s.
The jogging circuit is designed to accommodate both amateur runners and professional athletes looking for flat training ground.
It is part of a combined municipal green zone that also encompasses Parque Vila Guilherme.
Parque Trote is a public park located in the Vila Guilherme district, situated on grounds that formerly hosted horse racing events. The park features a 1.5-kilometer jogging and walking track that loops through its wooded areas. It occupies a large urban plot in the northern region of São Paulo, offering residents significant green space. The park provides various sports facilities, including multi-sport courts and a soccer field. It is integrated into a larger municipal park complex known as Parque Vila Guilherme/Trote. The terrain is largely flat, making it accessible for casual exercise and recreational activities. Vegetation includes preserved tree species and landscaped lawns intended for passive leisure. The facility serves as a primary hub for neighborhood outdoor physical activity.
