Confirmed from Churchhill 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.

Id never been to church Hill Park until I enjoyed a weekend with the camp fire street rodders there. It's a nice place. Beautiful pavillion with a deck overlooking the park.

Beautiful,little park, nature trails, bocce court, volleyball, pavilions, our houses AND one for bathroom. A gorgeous little creek runs thru the center...a VERY nice family play and my dog loves it too

★★★★★ — Almichael , May 2018

Quiet park tucked away from traffic.. playgrounds, gazebos for private parties, paths and nature all around you. Basket ball courts could be refurbished. Perfect for families!

★★★★★ — Brittany , Aug 2018

Nice atmosphere, but I am still weary of the 'one way in and one way out' .to exit . I walked 3 miles.

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.
