Confirmed from Blythe Island Regional 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 1,100-acre park features a lake with fishing & swimming, plus a playground & picnic pavilions.
What runners say about Blythe Island Regional Park
“The campground was nice with clean bathrooms and grounds.”
“Beautiful water views near the playground area, There is a bathroom area and water fountains.”
We stopped at this park to stretch our legs and were pleasantly surprised at its beauty. There is a bathroom area with sign to follow to a really lovely well marked nature trail in which we saw armadillo, deer and rabbits! Beautiful water views near the playground area as well.
Loved all the shading trees. We parked at several sites during our time here as the office wouldn't allow us to book longer than two weeks at a time (we were there for two months). The rabbits were cute but it was difficult to drive around at times when they were in the road. We really enjoyed the biking trails here.
Five Stars We’ve been traveling regularly in our motorhome for the past four or five years and have visited hundreds of parks across the country. Blythe Island Regional Park is at the absolute top of our list. The park is pristine. There are miles and miles of hiking trails that feel peaceful and well cared for.
We have been multiple times. We love this campground. The facilities are clean. There is a lot of shaded camp spots. You can bring street legal golf carts. There are multiple playgrounds for kids. There is a swimming lake.
