Confirmed from Green Meadow 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.

“BEAUTIFUL beautiful park, definitely looking forward to going back again, very clean.”

What a little hidden gem. This park is very nice. It has little pavilions with roofs, overhead to be nice and cool. It has a very large pond that you can fish from shore or from a little deck. This park is not trashy, nor has it been ruined by graffiti.. A lot of people come here to fish.

★★★★☆ — Cheryl , Sep 2025

This is a nice little in town park. The pond is stocked with catfish which are managed with 2 per angler daily limit which would explain the regular visits by Fish and Game. The park overall isn't the dirtiest I've ever been too, but you will find a fair amount of water bottles and lost tackle.

★★★★☆ — Andrew , Apr 2024

This is our favorite park in town because it has a great little playground for any age, covered picnic tables, plenty of bench seating around play area, restrooms, and the pond itself has a clean and tidy walking path all the way around. Pets are allowed!

★★★★★ — Kim , Apr 2019

Beautiful peaceful park! There is plenty of things to do there. Fishing, feeding the ducks, the big awesome playground,the walking trail and plenty of seating placed around the lake. They have picnic spaces for small and big gatherings. Nice clean bathrooms.

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.
