Confirmed from Damonte Ranch 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.
Sprawling park, known as Rocket Park owing to its rocket-like play structure, with grassy spaces, kid-friendly trails, picnic areas, basketball courts and playgrounds.

This park is great. I take my dog pretty often and it has a great 3 mile paved trail loop. Great for training for a 5 or 10k! Watch out for horse poop! Parking lot can sometimes be full when the weather is nice. There is also a playground, covered picnic area, and public restrooms.
Wonderful walking/bike path that's over 5k with all the trails near the main park. Wonderful layout. Great view of the landscape too. Epic subsets as well.
Fully paved walking path with beautiful scenery! A great walk for puppers too!
