Confirmed from Clay Presnell Memorial 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 disc-golf facilities, baseball fields and trails for walkers or runners, plus a pond.
What runners say about Clay Presnell Memorial Park
“Quiet and peaceful, but kept up pretty well.”
A great park for walking or running. There is a loop at the top of the park and a trail that meanders through a wooded area with a downhill slope to a picnic area. There is also a disc golf course. Porta potties onsite.
This is a fantastic disc golf course! It is difficult, yet scorable. Hole 2 is an Ace Run. Hole 4 has 2 throwing options. Hole 6 is easily a 2, but has OB danger. Hole 10 is a nearly 500 downhill par 3 and a great challenge! Hole 12 is a 250 foot water carry. Hole 15 is a 565 foot par 4 bomb!
Disc-frisbee. I was there to walk my dog. Mini-gravel trails. 1st time there, hope therere some nature trails - flowers, etc.
Always a pleasant place to come walk. They also have a picnic area by a pond along with baseball and soccer fields.
