Confirmed from Erie Community 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.
Multiple ballfields, kid-friendly playgrounds and a skate park in a large, clean space.

“I was just exploring around the state and landed upon this park with a beautiful view of the mountain range!”
“The playground is spacious and well-designed, perfect for kids of all ages.”
My kids love it. Erie Community Park is a fantastic spot for families and anyone looking to enjoy the outdoors! We absolutely love it. The playground is spacious and well-designed, perfect for kids of all ages.
Fantastic new park with lots of different activities for all ages. The new bike park is awesome with plenty of paths to explore. The pavilion is a fantastic gathering place as well!
This is a cool park! The playgrounds are nice - there is something for kids of all ages. The only unfortunate part is the proximity and lack of protection of the baseball field.
Great park in a great family friendly town. This park has extremly clean 4 baseball fields with a small play structure by the bleachers. There is also a snack bar and a warm up field. Just outside the baseball park is a large open field and a larger playground. There is a toddler playground a short walk away.
