Confirmed from Founder's Park at Campbell Station'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.
This 17-acre green space features lighted walking paths, outdoor sculptures & picnic pavilions.

Really nice park. Not huge, you can spend an hour here walking around. Great water and paths. Its a strange gem in a strange spot. Most of the are around here is neighborhoods. Its really well maintained. Theres some open areas and even a stage where they have some events.
We love going to this path and walking along the creek bed, playing and exploring nature, and enjoying the surroundings nearby the library. The path is paved, mostly shaded, and many creatures to discover along the way. My kids ask to come here frequently! The creek is their favorite part to explore.
Enjoyable park great for all ages. Walking paths on the front side that are easily accessible as well as a bit deeper in for a small effort. Playgrounds for kids, couple pavilions, several benches. Christmas light display loads of fun for all ages.
This park is awesome. It's usually very quiet and the trails make you feel like you're up in the mountains even when you're just near major roads. Great place to hang up a hammock. Pavilions and grills for food make it a great place to meet friends or family. And there's festivals here in the summer!
