Confirmed from Bender Fields - Lynden Parks' 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 with soccer, tennis, baseball, climbing and pickleball courts.
What runners say about Bender Fields - Lynden Parks
“Clean bathrooms and on weekends in the summer time the snack shack is open.”
Nice park to let the dogs run around. There is an off leash dog area that’s hidden in the back which we missed the first time coming here!
I walk my dog here through the trail from lynden city park and the dog park is a perfect 15 min exercise for him to run around free with other dogs. There’s also a concession stand and new playground equipment being installed!
Great Park! Love the bmx track! And there's even a little creek you can walk down to.
