Confirmed from Bronson 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.
Park with basketball and picnic facilities, a playground, and a splash pad.
What runners say about Bronson Park
“The Splash pad is always clean, Now if only they could revamp the baseball/softball/Volleyball/ and Basketball areas”
“Very clean and beautiful.”
Checked out the new walk between the Splash pad and play ground equipment. This is a great addition to to the park, there were little play stations along the walk way.
Very fun and FREE place for the kids to play and run off some of that extra energy!
