Confirmed from Huntersville Athletic 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.
Cleanly maintained park featuring a ballfield and athletic fields.
What runners say about Huntersville Athletic Park
“The fields looked like they were in great shape, bathrooms were clean, parking was great.”
Many excellent athletic fields and 3 separate little playgrounds, including a great workout park. I highly recommend this park! There’s a little kids playground on one side of the parking lot. A little bit bigger park on the other side of the parking lot, with slides and some swings.
Great park for toddlers that keep running away. The toddler part has a gate that locks, so you don't have to worry as much. Also the grass is very soft or maybe it's soft turf but they won't get hurt when they fall.
Beautiful park. Great facility for a weekend of baseball. Doesn't hurt when you walk away with first place for the weekend!
Great field, the turf field looked very nice. The dirt fields were also very good and the warm up area for the batting cage was very nice. The bathrooms were clean with a good snack shop as well. Great environment to play at and a very well run field.

“The fields looked like they were in great shape, bathrooms were clean, parking was great.”
