Confirmed from Highland 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.
Well-maintained, kid-friendly park featuring picnic shelters and play equipment for various age groups.
What runners say about Highland Park
“Loved this park everyone there friendly and the kids had so much fun its supre clean always that we go .”
“Such a large variety of equipment tucked back in a quiet neighborhood with stunning views!”
“Lots of fun peaceful memories here with the family, sometimes there's some wind but in the heat of summer the breeze helps keep things cool.”
Great trail system in the Coral Canyon are. Nice people. Great park with plenty of room to play for kids or get the pup out. Plenty of gass at park for soccer to other activities. Some good monkey bars for pullups and dips for young and older along with the other playground equipment.
Love this place to walk. It’s paved, flat and safe. There are always people around. The views are amazing. There are park benches, tables, grass, bathrooms (have not been in so I can’t report on them), drinking fountains… this place is great!
Lovely walking or running ~3 mile trail with options. Stunning views of the mountains. Add the Mt Everest trail for some incline.
Beautiful views and nice quiet area for picnics or just walking. Playing with your dog or just enjoying the views
