Confirmed from Andrew Mountain 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.

“Great hiking/dog park, beautiful area.”

Very nice with the dog park, trails, and open space. It is very scenic and serene.

★★★★★ — Don , Mar 2019

This place is beautiful!! There are so many trails and the dog park, as well as picnic tables to snack or rest. This is a whole lot of beautiful open space and fresh air that we should be enjoying.

★★★★★ — Crystal , Oct 2018

Pretty park-lots of tables and space for picnics. There are wide trails to explore if you don't have a dog to bring to the dog park.

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.

🐕 Dog-friendly 13 mentions

“Pros: - Separate fenced in areas for bigger dogs and smaller dogs - Good size park - Pavilion area for sitting Cons: - No water spigot”
