Confirmed from Civic 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.
Outdoor recreation center with ball fields & basketball courts encircled by a walking & biking path.

Beautiful park in Reynoldsburg. This park has just about everything that you could want in a park. Plenty of parking,athletic fields, playground equipment, restrooms, paved walking path, lots of open fields, a decent trail along Blacklick Creek and much more.
Great place to walk and dog friendly. Lot's of little paths that lead to the creek. Nice and peaceful.
Big open park area great for kids to play, sports such as soccer and football, good sized child's area for 3/10 year olds. Great walk on the perimeter. Plenty of parking, asphalt being lined up on the car parks on the day I visited.
Plenty of open field areas. There is a walking trails that goes around the park. Small fenced in basketball court with gravel lot next to it. Paved parking by soccer fields. It's usually pretty busy as this part is in the middle of a neighborhood with lots houses and apartments.
