Confirmed from Heritage 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.
Clean, serene park featuring baseball, soccer, football and basketball fields for playing sports, plus a zip line and an obstacle course.

A great family friendly park. Yes that includes the pups! From fields for all the sports, a great walking path to basketball courts and of course a really amazing playground! 100% will go again and again.
Beautiful. Nice playground and sports fields. Summer 2023 Wednesday night farmers market. Lovely walking trails in the back. Parking lot can be packed during sports.
This is one of the best parks in the area! There's separate playgrouds for younger and older kids. There's also a mile long track around the park, playing fields and a pavilion.
