Confirmed from Broadway 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 Broadway Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (564 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 6 mentions

“It's kept pretty clean, and it also has a workout area”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 4 mentions

“Always a fun a peaceful place to bring the kids”

My seven year old and I both absolutely love this park. Lots of room to run and it even has an adult workout area. One of my son and I favorite things is to roll down the Hill, racing to see who can get to the playground first. The only downfall of this park/playground is there are no restrooms.

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.
