Confirmed from Crowley 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.

This is a beautiful park with a nice walking path, a clean playground, a picnic deck on top of a small pond, and wildflowers! We stopped by the park after dinner but discovered the giant field of wildflowers in the back, which made the visit a lot more memorable.

A nice park with a small pond and a fishing pier. There is a walking trail and a kids play area as well. Plenty of parking available.

★★★★☆ — Sayak , Mar 2023

Love to walk to Crowley Park every day. You can hear the voice of squirrel & birds. The autumn is so beautiful with changing leaves.

★★★★★ — Huong , Apr 2023

I love this place. Nice playground that was recently renovated with a new heavy duty set. There are limited benches and tables but for the size of the park is acceptable. Nice pond with lots of ducks and fish. Beautiful homes in the neighborhood.

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.
