Confirmed from Bonelli 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.

The Beautiful Bonelli Park is the one with trails, lake, fishing, water activities, playground, picnic areas and There is lot more to offer. Dogs friendly. During the weekend and summer, the car park is not free, they charge $12 parking fees.
Great trails for hiking, MTB and road cycling through the park as well. Beatiful views of the lake, dam and Raging Waters waterpark nearby. An outing for your family with fishing, bbq, picnic and relaxing.
Beautiful park with beautiful views. Comes complete with crocking frogs, honking geese, hopping bunnies, hiking/biking trails, and fishing. My only complaint is the so-called market. Not much can be found in there.
