Confirmed from Depot 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.
Family recreational site with facilities for basketball & soccer, a playground & a walking path.
What runners say about Depot Park
Nice park. Restrooms on site. Great walking path and a nice playground. Covered picnic area and a nice little creek.
This is a really nice park. It has a paved asphalt path around it that is really nice, leads to a short, private path, over a bridge, over the stream and to the separate but adjoining skate park.
Good little park. There is a playground that my 2 year old loves to play on. There are basketball courts and a picnic area as well. There is one soccer field. A trail loops all the way around which I believe is 1/5 of a mile. They just recently finished a path that connects to the skate park/ aquatics center.
My granddaughter loves to scoot around the circle and the circle is small enough that I can keep eyes on her at all times! We enjoy the little path that leads down to the skateboard park! She absolutely loves going there and I do to!!!!❤❤❤❤
Trail conditions & character
“Unfortunately there is a large gap between when the restrooms close at 5:00 and the park closes at sundown.”
“It has a paved asphalt path around it that is really nice, leads to a short, private path, over a bridge, over the stream and to the separate but adjoining skate park.”
“I was able to take my old dog there so she could watch me skate around the giant loop without her struggling to follow along.”
