Confirmed from Discovery Park, Valley-Wide Recreation and Park District'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.
Lush place with a playground as well as baseball and softball fields.

Great park that was the location of many a baseball practices for my oldest son on the Menifee Valley Challenger Special Needs Team for many years — Our youngest pictured here enjoyed many years of playing on the playground here and running around the grass areas by the baseball field
