Confirmed from Covington 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.
What runners say about Covington Park
It's a bit run down and the bathrooms are never open. But it does have a large variety available including walking trails, tennis courts, children's playground and more.
Great hidden gem! The park has ample shade and walking paths. A very nice place. We love stopping here when we’re in town.
