Confirmed from Clarence E. Sasser 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.

What runners say about Clarence E. Sasser Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (205 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Great place to get your cardio workout in, engage in sporting activities, or just hang out with family and/or friends. I made a few laps around the park on the trail. I'm not exactly sure of the distance, but it is notable making one complete trip around the park.

★★★★★ — Mr. , Apr 2021

Such a nice park.Went here during the weekend for a picnic.The trail is somewhere between .6 or .8 miles.It is a nice trail to jog.They have a little play area for little kids and have recently added a little library for kids to pick out books and return them.You can also play in the field in the center.

★★★★★ — Ani , Sep 2021

This is one of our favorite parks. Our kids call it the "spinney park" due to the 2-3 activities where you can spin. There is a nice playground and covered seating area, and a large walking loop around the park. There are also some fields where you can play sports.

★★★★★ — Andy , Feb 2024

The park is a very nice I enjoy the sunsets , but there are a few cyclist that are not very familiar with calls when passing pedestrians, I suggest that signs are put up for cyclists to learn how to call out when passing someone on the right on the left a lot of the cyclists surprise walkers when they come up on them…

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.
