Confirmed from Fields Landing 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.

Super fun park! Great for fishing, kayaking, taking a walk. grills, picnic tables, and if you covered pavilions. Free parking, but needs more spaces. Port-A-Potty.

Amazing little lake side, play ground equipment, lunch tables with little shelters, no bathrooms, pet friendly on leash, boating and kayaking for a small fee ( honor box), fishing, hiking and drift wood collecting. Awesome quiet and peaceful spot. Wheel chair accessible and trailer parking available.

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.
