Confirmed from Fairview 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.
Grassy, spacious park featuring basketball and tennis courts, a pavilion and a playground.
What runners say about Fairview Park
“Bathrooms were clean, a very nice bike/walking trail that's paved.”
This is such a perfect park. Sports fields, courts, play areas, pavilion, and access to the Two Rivers Trail to hike down to the Lehigh River or over to the Bushkill. You can go for hours and hours.
Bathrooms were clean, a very nice bike/walking trail that's paved. Basketball court, tennis courts, children's park area. Dogs allowed on the trail only. Pavilion is available for parties to rent, it has grills that use charcoal. Bring all your own supplies.
The park has a walking trail, playgrounds, basketball court and tennis court. My kids and I love it.
It’s a great place to play baseball, softball, basketball, pickleball, tennis, enjoy the playground, have a picnic, and play games on the grass. There is a hill which can be fun for small kids to go sledding in the winter.
