Confirmed from Burt Aaronson South County Regional 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.
Year-round green space featuring gardens, a golf course, an aquatic park & amphitheaters.

“It’s well kept, if I bump into anyone there (rarely), they’re always so kind with the most amazing dogs.”
“I go there when I want a quiet place to clear my head and connect with God but I stay for the absolutely beautiful sunset views.”
Love this park! It is huge and there are so many places to explore. I come here all the time to walk with my husband and dog. The dog park is a plus. I really enjoy the scenery around the lakes. It’s a great place to come to relax, have a picnic/bbq or get some exercise!
Love this Park. There is a little bit of everything here from a kids small water park to a golf course. Make sure you check out the hidden paths that lead to observing towers.
Nice big park with a dog area, swimming pools, golf, baseball, soccer, amphitheatre, and trails.
