Confirmed from Kees 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.

👟 good for all levels 2 mentions

I have been enjoying this parking for 30+ years and we enjoy it more every time. Lots of parking, frehly maintained and clean. The play area is very kid friendly with turf grass and a paved walking path. Events are held here year round, and there is a water pad in the summer!

★★★★★ — Crowcat , May 2026

The playground equipment is updated within reason and maintenanced fairly regularly. It's a nice, clean place for kids to play outside. It's also mostly quiet, if you just need a walk in the park. All kids love water parks and swings... And they actually have quite a few sets. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon...

★★★★☆ — Laura , Apr 2025

This park is always clean. Nice landscape with lots of play areas for different ages of kids. Theres a splash pad for summer fun and a walking trail around it all. It feels very safe as well.

★★★★★ — Rachael , Jan 2025

The park has always been clean and well maintained. Alot of shade and plenty of place to sit while the kids play.

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.

🚻 Restrooms 2 mentions

“The restrooms, although pretty clean most of the time, probably need attention more often.”
