Confirmed from Freedom Trail 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.
Laid-back locale with a playground and sensory stations, plus picnic tables.
What runners say about Freedom Trail Park
“Clean and well maintained park.”
“Great views,better crowd, neat little waterway and scenic area.”
“There are lots of places to sit, but not a whole lot of shade, so if it’s sunny wear that sunscreen!”
“My son loved this place it was quiet secluded finally a nice park not on the roadside but tucked back behind a cul-de-sac.”
“There’s a football field with small bleachers and a variety of different plants, flowers and pathways to appeal to senses of all abilities.”
There’s something about neighborhood parks - quiet, easily accessible and not too crowded. I got out on a good weather day today and enjoyed a good 1 hour walk around the different trails.
Nice park! 2 main playgrounds one for kids and another for toddlers, although younger kids can play on both safely. Swing sets for ALL ages, wind chime structure, covered seating. Multiple picnic tables and a walking trail. Large parking lot for many cars, including wheel chair accessible parking.
Amazing little spot we found while handling some business in Westfield! Great views,better crowd, neat little waterway and scenic area.
Cute park for sure!! I love going on walks around here, and the rock climbing wall is super neat! They have this thing your can grab onto and spin in circles in the air, which is my favorite addition! Plus they have bench swings for parents to sit at while the kids play!
