We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Barney Farms Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
What runners say about Barney Farms Park
Very nice park. However for a park to cater to special needs kids it is a walk from the parking lot. I wish the had a closer lot. I get its just around the baseball field but that's just my opinion.
Access the levee trail here. Quiet part of town. Gets busy in the summertime.
