Confirmed from Camillus 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.

“If you live in Camillus and need a easy trail to hike ,it's a good place to go because most of the trails are flat and small.”

they have plenty of parking. Awesome place too take the kids. They have a huge splash pad. Lots of different picnic tables and public grills. Next too the splash pad is workout equipment. Also on the other side of the splash pad they have a playground.

Something for everyone. Pickle ball courts, exercise equipment, walking trails in the woods, a splash pad, and a nice playground.

I grew up coming to the pool when it was there and now I come here to walk my dogs. There's a ton of different trails to take and although the overall park is small , you can take all the different trails to make it longer .

★★★★★ — Amandaa , Aug 2022

Absolutely love this park! It’s beautiful, clean, and has so much to do for all ages. Tons of space to run around, great play structures, and it’s just a really nice spot to spend the day. Both of my kids beg me to take them back!

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.
