Confirmed from Echo Hills 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.

“It is small but has something for kids of all ages.”

Favorite park in the north Hurst neighborhood off of precinct near W.A. Porter elementary. Perfect park for the neighborhood! Lots of swings, a huge jungle gym to climb, and plenty of stuff for small and slightly bigger kiddos.

★★★★☆ — Zakary , Nov 2022

This is a fun little park! The playground is nice and there are different sections targeted toward different age groups. There is also a walking trail along a little wooded area. The parking lot is a bit small, but there is plenty of space to park along the street if the lot is full.

★★★★★ — Michael , Mar 2018

Beautiful park. Recently updated. Picnic tables with grills. Many slides. Swings. Climbing net structure. Two different structures for appropriate age levels with monkey bars and rock walls. Short walking track around the park. Large open space. No bathrooms.

★★★★☆ — Natalie , Mar 2018

Love this park! It has nice play equipment, seldom crowded, and a good distance of walking path all the way around it. Thank you, Hurst, for a nice little gem!

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.
