We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Kenney Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.

Lush grounds featuring slides, swings, picnic tables, soccer fields and a baseball field.

well-maintained 3 mentions

“For the most part a nice playground, clean.”

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“The fields are beautiful and back up to the rails to trails bike path.”

The fields are beautiful and back up to the rails to trails bike path. Has jungle gym area as well as numerous park benches situated throughout the site. Has a beautiful war memorial and retired fighter jet on display. Had old box train cars a few years back, since removed. One central pavilion. Pokemon go friendly.

★★★★★ — Brett , Dec 2017

Military memorial part of the park is nice. Bonus that it runs through Rails to Trails. Great soccer fields. Play park however, is very small and doesn't keep the attention of the kids for very long.

★★★★☆ — Squirrel , Aug 2023

It's a nice park. It's big, so plenty of space to run around. The equipment is kept up. Plus, they have a nice memorial area for our service members. I recommend it.

★★★★★ — Mary , Aug 2021

Great newly paved walkway around fields. Well kept landscaping. New park for kiddos. Area for eating also. Very fun for Fourth of July.
