Confirmed from Blyth 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 40-acre former factory site has picnic shelters & a playground, plus trails & paved pathways.
What runners say about Blyth Park
“Plenty of picnic tables, two large shelters (one of which has a fireplace), lots of parking and clean toilets for park visitors.”
“And if you are in the mood for hiking, which is what we did, its a beautiful trek up the mountain!”
“We visited on spring weekday, it’s pretty and peaceful.”
This park is unofficially an off leash park area as you’ll see Al dogs running blissfully! It’s adjacent to Wayne Park ( which is 80 acres) or Golf Course. Which is now all one area. Theres a higher hub trail but it’s an incline and muddy when it rains, watch out slippery slopes.
Such a nice cute park! Connects right to Wayne Park, there are nearby trails and fields for your dogs. Remember to pick up after your dog!
Lovely place for a morning walk. Mist rises from the creek, making for an emersive nature experience. Quiet and not crowded. Trails are very nice and secluded especially for being so close to civilization.
Calm, peaceful park. Well maintained trails. Clean bathrooms. Active playground. A disc golf basket even. Great place for a stroll with the dog.
