Confirmed from Fox Run 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.

Dog-friendlyQuiet

Calm neighborhood park with a playground, a pond and turtles.

🌾 quiet & peaceful 6 mentions

“The park is very pretty and so peaceful place to walk or swing and swing with your kids.”

***CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION**** I SAW TWO VERY LARGE ALL BLACK COLORED COTTON MOUTH WATER MOCCASINS BY THE WALKING/JOGGING PATH BY THE POND. APPROX. 4 FEET LONG AND ABOUT 8 INCHES IN DIAMETER ON THE WATER BY THE ROCKS ALSO ANOTHER SMALLER JUVENILE BANDED ON APPROX.

★★★★★ — R , May 2020

Regulars like to go here to run, bike ride or walk around the lake trail. People are friendly, children well behaved at playground and monitored by a adult. People like to walk their dogs and keep them on leashs.

★★★★★ — Christine , Aug 2020

Nice little park to walk around the pond. Little gum equipment for the kids to play on. Small bit nice and quite

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.
