We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Hazelwood Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Hazelwood Park
I love to visit Hazelwood Park, it's a nice park. People walk their dogs, have picnics, barbecue, relax... and it's one step away from the beach, just on the order side of the road.
They have swings, playground and basketball courts. There's a lot of land to run around on.
