Confirmed from Everett N. "Eddie" Souza 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.
What runners say about Everett N. "Eddie" Souza Park
“Clean playground for both little and bigger kids.”
Great little park for kids and family with a bypassing bike trail 🚴♀️
Nice place. Clean. Restrooms. Tesla charging stations. Bike trail. Benches. Playground.
A relatively new, little park, nicely insulated from the expressway. This is a very good place to visit by bicycle or to stop while biking or walking on the trail. There's a restroom and a drinking fountain with a bottle filler. Otherwise, there's a small parking lot and a solar charging station for electric cars.
It's not too big and not too small a space. Beautifully maintained. Kids loved the playground while I enjoy the walking trail. Restrooms fine. 🌈🌻
