Confirmed from Challenge Grove 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.
This 18-acre park features playgrounds, a bike path, picnic areas, sports facilities & a garden.

“It is very clean and the kids enjoy playing t this park.”
“They have plenty of parking and a beautiful area for kids to play basketball and a playground area.”
Great place for kids and families! Thew were on all of the equipment, playing ball, and walking around!! There is a small nature trail around the sides!! Absolutely love this park/playground! It is perfect to bring the kids here when the weather permits!! They have picnic benches and places to sit in the, shade!!
Nice big playground however the kids love the spinning cup. We flew kites on the baseball field. Brought food with us and spread blankets. Lots of families, runners, walkers and players on a beautiful day. Parking could be rough on busy days which are weekends mostly. Haven't been here at night so that me be a problem.
I like to got this park. It is safe and I saw cops doing checks. Also they have basketball court, playgrounds for kids and I enjoy having an afternoon walk on the track, with no bicycling allowed. Also they have a trail and looks like they are expanding the park on the other adjoining area across the park.
Nice playground for young children. Walking track surrounds the playground. Basketball court is well maintained. There is also a pond to view and hiking trails.
