Confirmed from 100 Plaza Park Las Vegas NM's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 5 mentions

“Our beautiful historical city and Plaza will take you back in time of Billy the Kid.”

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“Shady little pocket park in the middle of a plaza with a few shops in historic buildings.”

Great place for walking, lots of live music take place in the park. Lots of historical art, shops and hotels around it. The breeze is amazing at 3:00 p.m. in June.

★★★★★ — Jnique , Jun 2022

The park is very great lots of activity. The plaza is my favorite park with thing all around to do. Shade all day....

★★★★★ — Outdoor , Jul 2019

Charming if a little run down. Shady little pocket park in the middle of a plaza with a few shops in historic buildings. There are a handful of benches and tables. No public restrooms that I saw.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
