Confirmed from Friedenfeld 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.
City park with a playground, baseball fields, soccer field, and walking trails.
What runners say about Friedenfeld Park
“Great park for the kids - clean and well maintained and has restroom facilities.”
“This is a beautiful park although when there are sporting events, the parking lot could use some arrows to better control or assist with the flow of traffic!”
One of the best parks in Germantown. Usually quiet and not a lot of people, nice length of path for walks, the playset is pretty cool for anyone of any age, and it's surrounded by trees instead of houses so it's very peaceful. (Friedenfeld = Peaceful Park)
loved working out on the HILL ran up and down many times , felt super safe at night and plenty of space . Lots of trails and lights on the paths
Pretty park with baseball diamonds and beautiful play area for kids. Also nice walking trails. Best part, plenty of port a potties available
Lots of open trails, brand new playground (that is rarely busy), and soccer fields. Plenty of space to run!

- SurfacePaved — asphalt or concrete. Fast and predictable, runnable year-round, and fine with a stroller

- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- LightingRunners report lights on the path — useful for pre-dawn and after-work miles. Lighting and opening hours are separate things, so check both.
