Confirmed from Christa McAuliffe 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.
Park with picnic tables and a playground as well as a ball field, basketball court, and hiking trails.
What runners say about Christa McAuliffe Park
“Nice spot with park, pavilion, restrooms, benches, shade, baseball diamond, and trails close by.”
“The trails that have a trailhead here are part of the Baird Creek Trail system and are easy to follow.”
“Found this place while visiting a family member at the Aurora hospital near by, offered a nice peaceful place to reflect and walk the dogs too.”
This is a great hike. I took the cedar Creek trail and it was just perfect. I haven't hided a long time and it was really nice. I would suggest bug spray though cuz unless you kept on moving, the bug we're right on you
Love this park. Equipment for smaller kids. Baseball field. Soccer field. Trails. Always quiet. We get there a few times for a softball game with friends. We make the trip acrotown for this park knowing that we can play ball and not worry about there being people on the field.
Great park. Lots of shade and seating. Nice open pavillion. Base ball diamond, basketball court and a horseshoe pit. Saw a map for the trails but didn't get to explore. I didn't notice a bathroom but I wasn't looking either.
Found this place while visiting a family member at the Aurora hospital near by, offered a nice peaceful place to reflect and walk the dogs too. Was not able to walk the beautiful ravine trails due to mud but everything open to dogs if you have them I read the plaque in the pavilion but not sure of the local connection…
