Confirmed from Kahler Russell 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.

well-maintained 3 mentions

“The park overall is well maintained and is a great place to walk through if you are trying to get your steps in or if you have a child that is playing sports there.”

🏞️ beautiful scenery 4 mentions

“And a beautiful creek with lush greenery; my kids love exploring at this park Tonight we were being serenaded by the plethora of frogs in the creek!”

Just happened to stumble across this park, you can walk from one end to the other; Glendora ave to Grand Ave with a very nice walking nature trail running parallel to soccer ⚽ fields and basketball courts. Only thing that could use an upgrade is better lighting when the sun goes down.

★★★★☆ — Raymond , Jan 2023

Great park. Found a hidden little walking trail. Cross the bridge and you'll find it. Lots of shade. Yummy ice cream truck on site 4-7pm called celestial treat station.

★★★★★ — Jen , Mar 2022

Great place to bring your pets for a nice, long walk. B-Ball courts and fields with lush, green grass. Playgrounds for the kids. A unique shaped park with an awesome walk / run / MTB trail running the length of it on both sides.

★★★★★ — Trênt , Mar 2018

Nice, quiet and beautiful park. Great place for picnics. There are tennis courts and a nice playground for kids. There is also a trail for walking/running.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
