Confirmed from Gorman 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.

Found out last minute we couldn’t eat at a venue before seeing a play with our group of 50 students. I checked the route and saw this park. I called Sharonville parks and recreation to make sure it was OK we could stop they were friendly kind and said no problem! It was a perfect place very clean.
Beautiful park newly renovated with a new recirculating water feature (they removed an out-dated, unusable swimming pool) and large baseball/basketball/soccer field for the kids. Also a very nice outdoor picnic area with a charcoal-fired grill for the adults. I'm hoping they rebuild the walking trails...
A small park in a residential area. If the houses don't have fences up you don't know if it's the park or somebody's backyard where you are walking your dog😆 there's a small clean dog park on the other side of the playground. There's also a fenced playground with a big slide and some benches.
