Confirmed from Century 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.

“Clean and great place to take a walk or ur kids.”

My first time walking here today.I really enjoyed the walk and nice people were out in good numbers.I felt safe because there was consented movement with others.Can't wait to return the view was very beautiful

★★★★★ — Patrice , Jun 2021

The park is used extensively for organized sports, but there's plenty of open time and space. There's also a good playground and public toilets with running water. No pavilions though.

★★★★☆ — Ben , Aug 2017

Has a bathroom building, trails, basketball, baseball, swings, slides, playground. Very clean area. Great for pet walking and for families with kids.

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.
