Confirmed from 10th and Ash Park'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.

“Nice playground, picnic tables, shade trees, benches for grandmas, bathrooms, kept clean and tidy.”

I lived close to this park for a number of years, and frequently walked with my grandchildren there, spending considerable and enjoyable time. Nice playground, picnic tables, shade trees, benches for grandmas, bathrooms, kept clean and tidy. Many warm wonderful memories at this park.

★★★★★ — Joycelyn , Feb 2019

Great clean park with baseball diamond, toys for kids to play on, operational drinking fountains with two height levels, walking path along the river, clean bathroom and nice tables. Good for all ages and mixed generations.

★★★★☆ — Jalet , Jul 2019

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.

“My boys had fun playing at the park and fishing but not much room in the bathroom stalls, I think they were made just for kids lol”
