We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Charles & Mable Swisher PARK yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Charles & Mable Swisher PARK

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (12 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

A very pleasant park to sit and rest while on the trail. Scenic and serene as shown in the pictures.

★★★★★ — Matt , May 2018

I'm walking on it now and there isn't anyone so it's perfect and there's tons of opossums

★★★★☆ — Tony , Oct 2022

I have such fond memories of walking or biking this trail as a kid, or even coming back to visit Crown Point in my early years of adulthood. Very nice place to just sit and be present in nature.

★★★★★ — Jared , Dec 2025

Don’t really understand how three benches in a circle is considered a park.. but I guess the name is cool. Doing like 40mph on this all throughout the trails 😂😂
