Confirmed from Broussard Sports Complex at Saint Julien 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.

well-maintained 12 mentions

“Large clean venue, it's not really my thing but for bread and circus purposes it must fit the bill and its bright, shiny, and well manicured.”

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“So clean, well built, and beautiful!”

🌳 shaded & cool 4 mentions

“My only concern is that in the middle of the summer the walking path will have very little shade.”

Pristine! I wish there was more shade but otherwise it's a great place! Paved walking path as well! Splash pad was nice and there's food.

★★★★★ — C. , Aug 2018

I have been a few timesnfor trunk or treat and the place is really nice. The playground is small but it keeps the kids entertained. The area is huge. It very nice and clean. Theres a few sitting areas and a lot of paths to walk or run. Hopefully one day I can check out a sporting event here

★★★★★ — Megan , Oct 2024

Really nice sports complex with a great concession stand. The splash pad is great, also, but the water was barely on for any of the features. That's the main reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. This made all the kids run and crowd the 4 fountains that were kind of running.

★★★★☆ — Chasity , Jun 2023

Great walking path and plenty of parking. Also there's water fountains every so often so that's nice. My only concern is that in the middle of the summer the walking path will have very little shade. It's gonna be hot Cher!

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.
