Confirmed from Fox Run Regional Park Trailhead'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.

A beautiful park with lots of accessible trails, beautiful trees, a nice gazebo and a couple ponds. Plenty of parking and bathrooms. There's two fantastic playgrounds nearby as well

★★★★★ — Benjamin , Oct 2022

A wonderful trail! Some incline but nothing too severe. There is a large fenced-in dog park, a new playground, open grassy areas and trails that are easy to navigate and shady which is wonderful in the hot summers. It can get a little busy when it's very nice out but is generally fairly quiet

★★★★★ — Rachel , May 2023

Wow! What an excellent park for old and young. You can take about 6 different trails or mix them up for a longer/ shorter and harder/ easier experience. You can take your dog's on a leash,. There are two bathrooms that we came across, there maybe more in the lake area where we did not go.

★★★★★ — Richard , Jul 2021

The trails are kind of a maze, but you can do a nice loop around the park. Great place to take the kids, dogs, or just get out for a short run.

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.
