Confirmed from Amador Valley Community 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.
Park with a swimming pool, a toddler-friendly playground, and picnic facilities, plus soccer and volleyball fields.

Huge park! Great for walks, picnics, soccer, pets, and so much more. It is also in a great location. There is a Safeway right up the street and downtown Pleasanton isn't far from it either. Beautiful park, well maintained. However after the high school let's out it can get a bit crowded.
