Confirmed from Jermain 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.
Site with recreational facilities like single-track mountain biking, tennis courts & shuffleboard.
What runners say about Jermain Park
“Such a nice little Park tennis courts picnic areas clean public restrooms lots of wide open spaces for the pups”
Interesting plan for a park: 10 tennis courts, 10 horseshoe pits, and 16 shuffleboard courts, all with some in very good condition and others in poor condition. Then just through in a random set of intertwining (I guess you could call them) mountain bike trails...
Great park. I've read many posts that say it's in the city and a bad area. Something bad can happen anywhere at anytime and I spoke with another bike rider on the trail that agreed and said he'd never had a problem. Some people limit themselves in life and some people get out and live.
Mountain bike trail is nice. New pickleball & tennis courts are nice . Yet beware -- recently , pickleballers here asked a guy to stop scratching up the courts with his skateboard . Guy angrily cursed, brandished a gun in response ! Scary experience !
Beautiful atmosphere, hidden trails and gems, nicely quiet.. just very muddy so wear good boots 😅

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
- SurfaceNatural surface — easiest on the joints and the most fun, but expect roots, rocks and mud after rain
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- LightingRunners report lights on the path — useful for pre-dawn and after-work miles. Lighting and opening hours are separate things, so check both.
