Confirmed from Grandview 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.
Recreation space featuring sports courts and a playground, plus walking trails and a gazebo.
What runners say about Grandview Park
Always enjoyed this park over the years. I would always go there when I was younger when I went to my grandma's and it's just a short walk away. Such a nice one I'm glad it's here, so many great memories with this park.
I like this park. I used to run here every morning and lost a lot of weight. I stopped running and now I found my weight again. That's besides the point. It's a great park. Lots of room for activities, and a nice little playground to take your kids.
Nice park with decent size trail for walking. Would be even better with a full size basketball court, more picnic areas, and a soccer pitch.
Playground was a bit damp but that's just this time of year. Very nice walking path
