Confirmed from Jack C. Donovan 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.
A park with baseball fields, and a dirt walking trail for a mile.
What runners say about Jack C. Donovan Park
There's a baseball field here, and a dirt road you can wander down for maybe a mile. Nobody really goes here so it's a good place to wander and be alone, but there aren't any amenities like space or playground equipment. There is a Pokestop and a gym for those who play Pokemon Go.
