Confirmed from Flesher Field'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.
Park with picnic areas, a playground, and a baseball field plus frequent hot air balloon launches.
What runners say about Flesher Field
“Nice park with clean bathrooms, 2 wiffle ball fields, couple pavilions, a gazebo, nice playground, soccer field and even a car charging station.”
“Love this park, itis beautiful and balloons launch there all the time.”
Nice park with many great options. There are many picnic tables and benches all around the park and some under two decent size picnic shelters and one gazebo. The playground is smallish but has structures for both 2-5 and 5-12 age ranges.
This is a great little park. Stopped by on our way through to stretch our legs and the kids loved it. There is a lot to do, climb and slide on in a small area. Also has a great, paved walking trail and allows dogs on leash. We will stop by again if in the area.
Come to relax, come to play, come to let your kids run around like wild horses, climb like maniacal monkeys, slide like slippery seals and swing like modern day Tarzan. Soccer shots was going Tuesday night I went along with some bagpipe players along with multiple booths advocating foster care.
Plenty of space for kids to play. And there's a walking trail for adults to get their steps in. It a fun place to visit
