Confirmed from Harvey Randall Wickes 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.

“We always see a lot of wildlife & the property is clean & cared for.”

This park is amazing! Great place to walk by yourself, with others or with your dog(s). Me and my family have been walking at this park for years and we love it. They also have a nice pond and dock for you to sit on as well as other benches and tables near the pond. They also have a lot of pavilions you can rent.

★★★★★ — Travis , Jul 2021

Good park for dog walking. Lots of ball diamonds. Good disc golf course if we haven't had a lot of rain recently.

★★★★★ — Tim , Mar 2020

We played a softball tournament here a bout a week ago. The fields were amazing. It would have been nice to have a sidewalk path to the diamond from the parking lot. It’s tough to drag a cooler through the grass or stone. Other than that... perfect. Playground, bathrooms, parking, driveway, landscaping, etc...

★★★★★ — Eric , Jul 2018

Nice playground for the kiddos! More for 5-12 year olds, not much for my toddler to play on. There's a pond here and walking paths, didn't check those out on this trip so can't comment, but it looked nice and there were people fishing. Lots of people walking leashed dogs.

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.
