Confirmed from Conway 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.
Manicured land offering an out-and-back walking path and a lake as well as tennis courts.
What runners say about Conway Park
“Beautiful park, great place for children, pickleball, a dog walk, or just enjoy some time by the lake with the ducks.”

Conway park is an undulating landscaped park and as you walk you think uphill and down dale! Has a small lake with a fountain in the middle! Benches and stools are adequately interspersed to provide rest! A huge dog park runs parallel to the walking path ! But all dogs I saw today preferred to walk outside!
A large park with lush green grass, children play area, long enough walk trail, a fountain inside small pond, lots of ducks and overall a very peaceful green area. You can visit here for an evening walk whenever you feel like.
This is a beautifully maintained park with a nice paved walking path that is an out-and-back with a loop around a small pond. It has a nice playground, some tennis courts, a dog park, and several picnic areas. The only downside is that the parking lot is quite small.
I wouldn't have thought there was a spacious and beautiful park nestled adjacent to the highway but this park is a hidden Gem, complete with walking trails, a lake with fountain, an enclosed separate dog park, and a playground .

- SurfacePaved — asphalt or concrete. Fast and predictable, runnable year-round, and fine with a stroller
