Confirmed from Hawn 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.

Open 24h

Community park on 20 acres offering a skate park, spray ground, picnic pavilion & large playground.

What runners say about Hawn Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (603 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

I have been going to Hawn Park for 35 years. I got my first scar in the middle of my forehead from falling in the parking lot LOL. Now I'm bringing my own children to the park that now has been updated and a splash park has been added. There's a paved trail around the park as well. Also has a skatepark.

★★★★★ — Amanda , Jan 2024

Great park and splash pad. The kids love this place, and it's even more fun watching the planes fly in to land and take off. ♡ Bummer that they took out the grills for hot dogs and burgers while playing at the splash pad and the kids slip while running around the splash pad area, so make sure your kiddos have water…

★★★★☆ — Amber , Jul 2025

We love this park. It has it all and only blocks from home. Two playgrounds, a skate/bike park, clean public restrooms a walking trail and of course the splash pad.

★★★★★ — Cynthia , Sep 2020

Posted hours for the park or trailhead. Gates and parking lots often close earlier than the trail itself, and seasonal hours change — worth a check before a pre-dawn or after-dark run.
