Confirmed from Centennial 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.
What runners say about Centennial Park

“Bike trails along a stream extremely large beautiful park with facility's for baseball, basketball tennis.”
“Perfect for a quiet moment or a kid's adventure.”
“Beautiful space in Rifle for families with children of all ages.”
This was a unique park that offered an interesting side of Rifle. I walked the trail and read the historic markers. It was a great way to learn about the community, even though the stories ended in the 1930s. The park itself was clean and well maintained.
Best park in town! The splash zone is so fun for all ages. The lark is a little more for older kids but still manageable for my two year old. Nice picnic areas and great path to take an evening walk or go on a run with your dog. Seriously best park in town!
Beautiful space in Rifle for families with children of all ages. Love that there separate play areas for younger and older children. The trails are great, and the splash pads/water play areas are awesome in the summer!
