Confirmed from Garrison 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.

“It's peaceful they got a playground or track you can walk around public restrooms grills picnic tables basketball courts and benches around the park where you can see it and relax”

A very quiet lil park. Hot in the summer, cold in the winter (I mean...outside...) got a loop of sidewalk going around it, basketball court, doubles as a tennis court, three-aeay teeter-totter, pair of swings, and a couple of pavilions. These, I suspect you'd have to reserve.

★★★★★ — Ignacio , Aug 2021

It's a nice park, with a tennis court, two mile track, and a small play ground, it is also next to a horse ranch so you can feed horses will you are there!

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.
