Confirmed from All Abilities 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.

“All Abilities Park in Washington, MO is an outstanding addition to the community.”

My kids love coming here,. It's awesome they have a community book drop off inside the gate, and we love walking around the lake. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is a few of the equipment needs some maintenance.

★★★★☆ — Krystal , Mar 2022

My kids absolutely love it here! One of the best playgrounds around! Especially since they tore out the blue playground on the other side of the lake. I like how this park is all fenced in so you don't have to worry about little ones running out into the street or anything like that.

★★★★★ — Brandy , Mar 2023

This is a popular park for kiddos. It's big and has a variety of structures and things for the kiddos to do. They can climb, slide, run, swing, spin and the whole park is fenced in. There is even a lovely little free library next to the bathroom. I love taking my old books there to share with others.

★★★★★ — Jessica , Aug 2019

It's such a fun park! There's so many activities for the kids to do and it's fenced in so it feels safer with little ones who like to try to run off. It's always clean and has bathrooms in good condition right next to it

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.

🚻 Restrooms 4 mentions

“There's a playground if you have youngins, areas for walking, picnicking, public restrooms available, and pet friendly.”
