Confirmed from Forrest E. Hull 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.
City park featuring a playground, picnic tables, and plenty of grassy space for dogs.
What runners say about Forrest E. Hull Park
“Nice park super clean, seemed safe, had a nice dog park only down part was people didn't follow the rules about keeping your dog on a leash or having big dogs in the small dog area”
“Shady trees and a fairly new okay structure, a dog park with a fence is also on premises.”
“There are plenty of water bowls in the small dog area and I also enjoy walking the loop inside the park.”
Come here pretty much DAILY with my 4 legged son Angelo! They have a large and small dog park area and keep in mind TONs of dog owners are around pretty much daily, especially once 6pm hits during the work week. Angelo loves it here and we’ve made so many great friends through the dog park here.
We love this park, nice walking loop, so many cute dogs and our boys love to climb the play structures! We found a painted rock in a tree! So fun and adorable!
This doggie park is the best ♡ I was doggie sitting and this is Freddie's favorite 💖 park to walk . All the doggies were glad to see Freddie 👀.
I was literally just passing through and after an hour in the car I looked for an off leash dog park for my pups. This was a great place! It is clean, there are two areas (one for large dogs and one for small dogs), there are water stations, and places to sit.
