Confirmed from Bert Fields 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.
This community park features open green spaces & a tree-shaded path along White Rock Creek.
What runners say about Bert Fields Park
“Beautiful open space and jogging trail in the middle of Far North Dallas.”
“Serene meadows large enough for several soccer fields, open and well-maintained with a simple trail along the creek.”
“Nothing fancy, but we come here often to walk our dog.”
Google leads you to the wrong entrance. It tells you to trespass on private property to access the park. This is incorrect. public access is north of Wilderness and Hughes. This is a nice small neighborhood park. Nothing fancy, but we come here often to walk our dog.
Great little loop to walk, and lots of open space for a game of catch. We saw 3 coyotes running on the other side of the creek.
Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful park to walk through with the dogs. And an angel showed up just when we needed her to help us with keys locked in the car. She ran my mom home to grab the spare. And she was seriously the nicest lady.
Best kept secret in Far North Dallas. Serene meadows large enough for several soccer fields, open and well-maintained with a simple trail along the creek. Parking is a challenge.
