Confirmed from Centerville-Washington Park District'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.

👟 good for all levels 2 mentions

“The Parks Community center offers a lot of projects, discoveries and teaching for all ages.”

It’s tucked in and away from the main road, blink and you’ll miss the entrance. Ample parking with many features a family will like during the summer. Splash pad, wheelchair conscious play area, walking paths, large baseball field, peewee baseball field and tennis courts to enjoy.

Our parks are constantly improving and very well maintained. The new trails and playground equipment are designed with great ideas and expert skill. Thank you.

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.

“We even came for a little girl's party, and the shelter and restrooms we're nice, too.”
