Confirmed from Breckenridge 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.

What runners say about Breckenridge Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (70 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

“The trail is gravel and seems to be well kept up.”

Decent place for running or jogging! You have to park along the street, but there is plenty of room. The trail is gravel and seems to be well kept up. There are a couple of Pokémon Go gyms in the area if that’s your thing as well!

★★★★☆ — Katie , Apr 2024

A decent size park with ample open areas, play area for the kids, a new mini circuit course workout area, and a seating area at the entrance to rest a bit if your using the adjacent bike path. There is also a drinking fountain and a bike rack to lock up your bike if you want to use the park.

★★★★☆ — Paul , Apr 2021

Awesome workout area and hiking trail. There is a wide open space for playing soccer or baseball. The basketball court is in good condition. The only thing I wish was different is that I wish there was an area for younger kids (toddlers). Developmental play.

★★★★☆ — Cassandra , Dec 2018

I love this park, the trail is fun to walk with my dogs and the exercise area is great for getting in a workout without having to go to the gym

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

🚰 Water fountains
