Confirmed from E. C. Million Memorial 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.

“Short easy walk with a few small hills”

Very nice trails. Beautiful park. The restrooms are very well kept up and clean always. We come here a lot to take a nice little hike with the kids. The trails are mild, so not too difficult but they are very hilly. Beautiful Butterfly Garden here as well.

Beautiful park with creeks, bridges, trails, and several picnic tables. Great for stop and lunch.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
