Confirmed from Community 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.

👟 good for all levels 2 mentions

“Took my newborn on a nice walk there, was a breath of fresh air seeing kids of all ages playing and having fun like we used to when we were kids.”

🐕 dog-walking favorite 4 mentions

“Has a great playground area for a bunch of kids to play, and usually has a handful of dogs walking around so my pup is usually happy to be at the park also!”

Needs to fix a slide that has been broken for months but my son likes coming to the playground here. Nice little wood trail to take a small nature walk.

★★★★☆ — Sean , Nov 2019

I loved this park. I happened to go simply for a place to walk my dog. I like to visit a variety of places with her as she is a Service-Dog-In-Training. This exposes her to different situations. And it's fun for me too. There was a Boro Hall Festival going on and it was quite enjoyable.

★★★★★ — Mary , Sep 2021

Nice park. Mostly for field play or concerts as there's a stage with the field in front. There's a large paved path encircling the field for walking/running. It could use some patch work, so be careful if you're a runner.

★★★★☆ — Kasey , Nov 2022

Great local park. Has a nice track to walk around as well as a well kept soccer and softball field. I have been here to walk my dogs numerous times and I have also been to vendor events here which are usually well organized. Park has plenty of clearly marked stations with dog waste bags, garbage and recycling.

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.
