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.

This place was awesome!! Just a peaceful walk while enjoying nature! Got an opportunity to meet Marcus, he's the guy that helps keep up the park! Very knowledgeable and nice guy! He explained the park layout and was able to direct me to where I could find more nature! I will be back to visit! Thank you Marcus!

★★★★★ — Matt , Jun 2023

Surprising amount of biodiversity for a park that's tucked away in a city. There's some recreation areas for basketball, picnic, and a play area for children. I saw a couple of small off the pavement trails and while they're less than 100 feet, it was enough to "almost" make you forget that you're in the middle of…

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.
