Confirmed from Center Park East'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 Center Park East

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (89 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 3 mentions

🏃 great for running 2 mentions

“The massive open grass areas are perfect for kids to run around, play soccer, and burn off some energy.”

Great for soccer players, there are 2 fields w/ a road connecting them on the side. Plenty of free parking, handicapped parking available. Great place to walk yr pets, various trails, behind the fields, that seem to go on for miles. Plenty of open space, parking lot doesn't have marked spaces, so you can park anywhere.

★★★★★ — Steve , Jul 2018

Veey nice big plaground with something for little ones as well. The kids also enjoy rolling down the huge hill. They also have restrooms.

★★★★★ — Samantha , May 2017

Great place to watch your dog run, play, smell, and meet other dogs. Leash free park, unless your dog is a threat to others.

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.
