Confirmed from Huffman 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.
Neighborhood park with a playground, picnic tables, and a softball field, plus fitness equipment.
What runners say about Huffman Park
“It is perfect, well maintained, newer play structures and an area for smaller children.”
“Top Condition ball diamond, with shade over the benches and good access.”
Great place to bring children to play, run or jog around the park, walk and take a breath, etc. It has a Fitness or callisthenics area which is very well equipped and maintained with multiple bars for pullups, rings for other exercises, platforms for leg works and areas for pushups. Totally recommended! 💪🏻🤓➡️🦾😎
Top Condition ball diamond, with shade over the benches and good access. Spectator seating, too! First base has a runner's pad (good), but second base was a temporary (bad), and third needed to be re-placed before our game.
Great park ,clean and everyone is so friendly. Good for small children and up and for exercise too . There is a sign to show you if you go around 3 times it's a mile very helpful .
Real nice park. On one side is the baseball diamond and the other is the playground. Lot of open field for little kiddos to run around. A basketball hoop.
