Confirmed from Harrison 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.

“Me and my mom take the dog out for a walk there every morning it's a beautiful place has a nice Trail for biking running or walking.”

Great to walk thru and rest. But now the city is tearing up part of it. Say they going to make more trails. Then the city will cry they have no money. The park is not very old. Use the money to fix the streets that keep tearing up.

★★★★☆ — Curt , Oct 2018

Ice newer playground equipment. Very large park that also has a long walking trail At rthe end if that there is a frisbee golf course. Hermiston has always taken pride in its parks.

★★★★★ — Jim , Mar 2018

I like how far you can walk or ride. It's a nice walk, and when mom got tired I had my wagon handy.

★★★★☆ — Laurie , Sep 2019

Previously this park would be largely forgotten and it certainly was not a destination spot, except that it connects to larger Oxbow trail. Now, that there are brand new basketball courts (with evening lighting), you may have a reason to visit and enjoy.

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.
