Confirmed from Fox Hill 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.
What runners say about Fox Hill Park
“We love it here it's very clean and not so crowded”
“Beautiful park on top of a hill, new playground for the kids And nice trails for walking”
Fox Hill Park's main entrance is at 3400 Kister Dr. The small parking lot is close to the playground, picnic tables, basketball half-court, and men's & women's SEASONAL restrooms. The ball field is just to the north. This park is popular for both walking and dog walking. We enjoy walking the hill for extra exercise.
This is a nice park for walking. The two lakes are pretty, especially in the summer. The first time I visited, I parked where Google directed me to, which is on Kister Dr. But that is a long walk to the lakes.
Just updated the playground. Kids ran around in there while we set up for some family photos. Grabbed a few shots and headed home. Great little spot closer to home that we can run to for all these things, even in the freezing cold.
