Confirmed from Dublin 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.
60-acre park with sports facilities, trails, a disc golf course & indoor & outdoor swimming pools.

“The park is beautiful, it’s a little bit small, but if you wanna go train for mild Hills, this is definitely the place to do it.”
It's always a fun place to visit with kids. Thanks for keeping this location clean and pleasant to enjoy. Great staff all around. Walking trails, tennis, soccer, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, basketball, and lessons in all these sporting activities. My kids have had some awesome memories here.

There is just enough parking so I recommend not going whenever there is a game going on and I was chased through the park by somebody in a car one time, but the overall area is gorgeous and…
Very kid friendly! Several tables with shade over them, bathrooms easily accessible.
Today was a beautiful day for a walk around the Park. My husband and I had a friend's child in a stroller and stopped to see the geese. We were blessed to observe the heron.
