Confirmed from Hawk Ridge 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.
Relaxed green space featuring a playground and a fishing pond.
What runners say about Hawk Ridge Park
“Bathrooms are usually clean The walk around the pond is nice, lots of fish frogs and turtles to see ( fishing allowed) A little ways up is a mountain bike course which is nice.”
“The walking trails are well-maintained and perfect for a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous run, with beautiful scenery all around.”
“Quaint and peaceful park with a classy boardwalk right in the middle of the suburbs.”
Quaint and peaceful park with a classy boardwalk right in the middle of the suburbs. What a great find! Perfect for a walk all the way around the little lake or a fishing spot. 🎣🏃🏼♀️ There are also some wooded trails as well. Looks like they have concerts in the summer time.
This is my go-to park! I love that I can take my daughter to play for a bit in the playground, then grab her stroller to go for a walk around the lake. When it’s busy, though, it’s BUSY and parking can be challenging to find! Other than that, great park and amenities!
Such a great park and playground! Walking path is paved plus dirt hiking trails and mountain bike trails. Beautifully maintained lake.
I absolutely loved my visit to this park! It’s a beautiful, peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The walking paths are well-maintained, and there are plenty of areas to sit and relax.
