Confirmed from Heritage Oaks 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.
Park with a creek featuring a walking path and a disc golf course.
What runners say about Heritage Oaks Park
“Scenic with water crossings.”
“Great Neighborhood Place to walk and talk walk my dog.”
Pretty nice hike and bike natural trails along the Trimmer creek with plenty of shade and nice neighborhoods
If your trying to go on a nice walk or jog would be hard pressed to find a nicer spot!! Definitely nothing in the area can compare!!
I have been coming here regularly for a year, it’s peaceful fresh air lots of trees little rivers lots of birds every now and then I get to deers of two or four together it’s a great place for walking and hiking listening to music lots of great people
I like it. Great place for family and kids to walk and have fun. It's safe because there is always someone nearby to help. I'm thankful that some houses are facing the walk path. It's more safer to go in the early mornings.
