Confirmed from Deindorfer Woods 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.
Park featuring trails, picnic tables, and a grill, plus fountains.
What runners say about Deindorfer Woods Park
“Very nice quiet small park.”
Been going here since I was young 40 years still have nice walking trails. The only thing I wish is that the hospital wouldn't have taken so much of the park when they had 2 huge lots to the east to use. Those hospitals always mess GOOD THINGS UP.
Use to go there as a kid back in 80’s, was a lot of fun. I remember they had Wizard of Oz themed swing sets. There use to be BMX trails behind it, we called Devils Trails and would ride on em all day! I think the VA tore the trails down for a parking lot. Alot of memories there as a kid!
Neighborhood fav. New playground equipment, pavilion with 3 picnic tables for get togethers or just hanging out, trails thru the woods & benches to sit on along the trails.
Pretty good park. Had walking trails I want to look at. But it's great if you are waiting for someone at the VA doctor building next door!!
