Confirmed from Day Road 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 Day Road Park
“Could use a little shade on the sidelines but is well maintained and clean everytime we go.”
Nice, big, beautiful park with a walking path around the perimeter; plenty of parking; playground for children; soccer fields⚽️
Great place to fly my kites when the wind is just right and no soccer games going on. Everyone walking by just seems to love the show.
It was a very nice walk. We had a good time watching the boats go through the channel. And the Boba/ ice cream shops treats were delicious
The grandchildren love the library. Posting a story as you walk you read. It is so wonderful the kids thoroughly enjoy it
Trail conditions & character
“Most dog walkers are good about cleaning up after their dogs but there are some that DO NOT.”
“Nice playground and path and bathrooms were open and clean.”
Plan your run at Day Road Park
The practical stuff
- AccessDawn to dusk — the gates close, so do not plan a run that finishes after dark
- SurfaceNatural surface — easiest on the joints and the most fun, but expect roots, rocks and mud after rain
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- At the trailheadrestrooms — reported by runners
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
