Confirmed from De Muro 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.

“Great park in Nutley and track is always open and clean”

🏃 great for running 4 mentions

“There is a rubberized track here, too, that is great for walking or running.”

Well manicured park. Great facilities for sports including basketball courts, Tennis courts and running track. Located in quiet neighborhood

★★★★☆ — Stuart , Oct 2019

Street & lot parking is convenient. The playground area is small, but there are a lot of swings. There is a rubberized track here, too, that is great for walking or running. The only issue is that the district uses the fields for sporting events, so there are times when access is restricted.

★★★★☆ — L , Aug 2023

Great place to walk or jog the track. Parking lot has plenty of spots. Bathrooms are open during spring and summer. The track has recently been redone and it's a great improvement.

★★★★★ — Joe , Jun 2022

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.
