Confirmed from Apple Orchard 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.

“The soccer fields here are always well kept and nice.”

Nice park for little league baseball games. I was over there for my daughters game. I only wish they'd provide some outdoor porta potties near the fields. Its a rather long walk to the main building or library.

★★★★☆ — Mike , May 2019

Nice place for a picnic, near the Library, and city fitness center(Not sure of the name) and aquatic center. Has walking path and many people walk their dogs there also.

★★★★☆ — Mary , Nov 2017

The soccer fields here are always well kept and nice. Nice park for kids and multiple pavilions. Baseball fields are always kept nice as well. Good running path!

★★★★★ — Madison , Mar 2017

It was very easy to access and the hill had different heights for all ages. My girl is 5 and she loved it!

★★★★★ — Dennis , Feb 2018

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.
