Confirmed from Harrison Meadows 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.
What runners say about Harrison Meadows Park
“Well maintained trails and a nice little playground”
A nice little park with a good sized play area for the kids, that's completed with a swing set. Also a basketball court and small picnic area. The paved trail is also connected to this park to add to its charm.
Great neighborhood park! Highly recommend taking a walk or stopping to sit in the grass!
One of my favorite trails to walk. Lots of wildlife and everyone is usually pretty friendly. The park is also nice
Very nice walking path. Clean, well kept & well marked. Picnic tables or benches would be nice.
