Confirmed from Clem Dufour 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.

🌳 shaded & cool 9 mentions

“Splash park, basketball courts with one normal size and another smaller for children,swings, playground equipment, tables with shade.”

A decent park. They are doing some construction on the north-west side of the park at the moment. Good place for a walk with the dog.

★★★★☆ — Joshua , Jan 2025

Free & Fun! Big picnic tables with XL umbrellas to keep the parents cooled off. The tables surround the splash pad so you always have a good eye on your kiddo running around. There's also a few playgrounds within yards of the splash pad, so there's plenty to do.

★★★★★ — Bre , Jul 2022

My son and I both really enjoy this park! It has a splash pad for the hotter months, and some climbing structures and play equipment year round that prove to be a lot of fun! There is also a baseball field on the far side of the park. Nice path to walk your pets as well!

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.
