Confirmed from Anderson Farm 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.
Sprawling park featuring basketball and baseball fields as well as a playground for kids.
What runners say about Anderson Farm Park
“The facilities are modern and clean, there is support for just about any sport you could imagine, and plenty of parking.”
“The grounds are sprawling and beautiful, but every sidewalk and paved trail is a stand alone one-way spur.”
“Really nice park with bathrooms, partially shaded playground, basketball court, & an amazing roller hockey court.”
“Great park and things to do for all ages!”
The park is lovely. The facilities are modern and clean, there is support for just about any sport you could imagine, and plenty of parking. What there is not is much of a walking path. The grounds are sprawling and beautiful, but every sidewalk and paved trail is a stand alone one-way spur.
I was there to see the Wall That Heals. It was a very moving experience. Thanks to all the volunteers especially the gentlemen who helped me find names of soldiers from Pottsgrove high school and the ladies who drove the carts so I didn't have to walk from the parking lot.
Great park. There is a nice trail but not very long. Lots of sports amenities. Another reviewer mentioned a dog park. There might have been one previously but I didn’t see one there during my visit.
My kids love this playground! There are also trails and fields as well. Bathrooms and water fountains too and plenty of parking! The playground has shade tents over parts of it.
