Confirmed from Ambrosia Springs 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.

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“Beautiful park, lots of shade to give some relief in Oklahoma heat!”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“Out of all the parks this one is my favorite wooded and quiet away from daily life on fort sill”

Nice and shady for the kids during the summer months. A little trail behind the part that's perfect for walking to dog. Leads to a stone building with the creek running behind it.

★★★★★ — M , Dec 2021

I love this park. It's contained so my grandson can just run and run, without worrying about cars.

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.
