Confirmed from Katherine Legge Memorial 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.
Featuring a 1927 English-style structure, this park also offers a playground & areas for sports.

“A beautiful place to have a wedding My nephew was married there Silas and Natalie, The outdoors was perfect the lodge very nice had a great time there,”
“It's a pretty beginner friendly park with a nice creek feature that plays in on a few holes.”
“There's a dog park area and a walking path that you have to be aware of but they have limited times so it's not always a free for all.”
Love KLM disc golf course! It's a pretty beginner friendly park with a nice creek feature that plays in on a few holes. There's a dog park area and a walking path that you have to be aware of but they have limited times so it's not always a free for all.
Lots of parking, rentable indoor space, disc golf course, nice terrain of ups downs, valleys, pretty trees, sports fields on outskirts of park, playground, picnic tables, and pavilions. Some areas allow dogs. Nice walk on a beautiful evening.. with some 4 year old vs 37 year old sprint races.
A truly beautiful Park featuring rolling hills, old buildings, and wildlife. My son competed in a cross country meet there, and it was the most attractive meet venue of the season. Near the course, we saw a baby beaver building a little starter-home in the creek that runs through the park
Nicely wooded, with walking path. Frisbee golf course. athletic fields. multiple pavilions. Playground. If you are in the area, stop by. It's quite nice.

“A beautiful place to have a wedding My nephew was married there Silas and Natalie, The outdoors was perfect the lodge very nice had a great time there,”
“The bad: The parking lot is being used as a high speed thoroughfare for local traffic.”
