Confirmed from Jack E Hill 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.
7.5-acre green space with a playground & baseball field, plus a hiking/biking trail & picnic tables.

“Very clean and nice park.”
“Such a beautiful for evening walks.”
“Really nice, big, and quiet park.”
This creek is a great place for beginner in wildlife photography! Many animals throughout the year come to visit! Great walk with the family!
Love this park n trail. This is our go to place for a quick five mile bike ride from EGHS. Everyone is generally nice on the trail too.
This is a very nice park with playground, trails with small ponds, ducks, geese. Lots of people run, bike, walk their dogs here.
Beautiful park in one of Elk Grove's Premier neighborhoods with restrooms, bbq, baseball fields, children's playground and access to a walking, bike, and equestrian Trail along Laguna Creek. The only downside is the lack of parking when Little League season is in full bloom.
