Confirmed from Huntington Ridge 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.
Playground featuring jungle gyms and slides.
What runners say about Huntington Ridge Park
Neat city park right along C Avenue. Large area to play or have sports practice. It is a rain collection area so beware it could be a little wet. Nice, newer playground equipment. Plenty of parking as well as bathroom facilities. Great place to walk while the kids play.
What a nice little park! There is a paved walking trail around the park. Nice neighborhood and grassy areas. Perfect place for families and a good place to walk with your dog.
Great small park with playground for younger kids. Open field used for soccer and football. Open shade shelter avail for picnics. Small walking trail.
Great play structure and walking/running path. Downside is there is no bathroom, just one port a pot quite a jaunt from the playground.
