Confirmed from Edmonds City 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.

“Splash park is well designed with lots of varied activities for children of all ages.”

This is a really nice park with ample parking, woodsy shady paths, lots of big trees, a big playground, open fields, plenty of picnic tables, and if they ever reopen it, a really cool water park.

★★★★★ — Serena , May 2021

Very nice and big park. There is plenty of shade, play grounds for small and older kids, a splash pad for younger and older kids and plenty of space to run around. Perfect place for picnics and letting kids get their energy out.

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.
