Confirmed from Deer 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 Deer Park
“Deer Park Park was clean and the accommodations were perfect for my two grandson's graduation party.”
Lovely, serene walking trail with a small pond and picnic area. Tennis courts, playground and baseball fields. Very nice
Clean park. Safe place to jog - but it’s also a dog trail so, just got to be courteous and kind- share the trail. It’s got a pond and my children enjoy playing basketball and the playground some times.
I like to walk my dog here. Its a cute park with a nice sized walking trail around football, baseball & soccer fields. There is also a little wooded walking area they made a little fun for the kiddos.
Great trails, plenty of parking, lots of sporting fields and courts, plus a big wooded area with a path towards the back of the park. Definitely a great spot!
