Confirmed from Brentlinger 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 Brentlinger Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (180 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 6 mentions

“Its well maintained but there is a building around there that has been taking pisses by people and smells ,_,”

Big park, nice and green in the 90°+ weather, A+ for that. Lots of shade, another A+, quiet. Bathrooms are okay, not the best but they'll do. Haven't seen any water fountains, but then again I'm not looking for them. I did notice there are no stores near but I'm not a local so there probably is.

★★★★☆ — Denise , Jul 2019

Lots of youth sporting games are played against other small towns Brentlinger Park also were you can come out & take walks or jog if you choose bathrooms availability walk your dog we also have just across the park is were the Basketball courts are located

★★★★☆ — Jerlee , Feb 2018

Brentlinger Park is a fun place for family and friends to gather for sporting events, outdoor parties and picnics. A great place for children to run and play. Beautiful green grass and we'll kept property.

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.
