Confirmed from Clawson-Burnley 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.
Community green space with 2 large picnic shelters & a connector trail to the Boone Greenway.
What runners say about Clawson-Burnley Park
“The trails here are very well maintained and there are tons of good solid hammocking places for after your run!”
“Great lengths of flat trails for walking or biking with scenic landscape all around including cover bridge, open space, and deer sightings beyond the greenway connectors.”
“The playground equipment is great for children of all ages.”
“Mostly Paved trail, seeing deer in the evening is common and leashed dogs are welcome.”
It's offers alot of opportunities to interact with nature. Lots of areas for sporting activities, biking and hiking. The park is safe for adults and children. There is a stream with clean flowing water
Beautiful scenery, easy trails. Bring your own tp for the portable potty.
We're visiting the area and decided to take a day off skiing. We randomly picked this park and we were so pleasantly surprised. Wonderful trails and a terrific playground all in gorgeous scenery.
Honestly one of the best parks/walking trails around. Was in town this last week and really needed somewhere to go for my daily runs. The trails here are very well maintained and there are tons of good solid hammocking places for after your run!
