Confirmed from Lacamas 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.
Over 300 acres of scenic trails & dense woods in a lakefront park, popular among birdwatchers.
What runners say about Lacamas Park
“The main paths are wide, smooth, and well maintained, which I find to be a huge benefit.”
“Lacamas Lake trails are absolutely stunning and honestly one of my favorite spots in the entire Camas area!”
“The walk was peaceful and beautiful, especially seeing the calm water reflecting the surroundings.”
“My wife originally discovered Round Lake as a kayaking destination, and it has evolved (for us) into a place for easy hikes and picnicking.”
“Took our dog on a walk last weekend.”
It's amazing. So many trails and views to see. You can just do a mile around the pretty lake, or you take longer trails that wind around the river. The potholes are cool and the little dams are neat. Really beautiful.
Winter has arrived here and its beauty is shining! Great family park. Nice walking trails. Dog friendly. Bike friendly. Several options to meet your exercise needs. Clean, plenty of parking. Picnic tables and play area.
A beautiful park, with a variety of things to see. Two natural waterfalls, the dam, lake, single path trails that trail bikes like to careen down so watch out. There are picnic tables along the lake as well as a small kids park.
What a great park and location for biking, hiking, running, walking, easy accessible for all fitness and physical levels. Always beautiful and you can find plants blooming all over the park. Lakes for fishing and other water sports. Give it a try as there is something for everyone.

“Great neighborhood park with awesome trails, lakes n ponds and waterfalls, a playground or two, and just all in all exactly what you’d want in a park/green space in your town.”
“We visited Lacamas Park and started our walk at the small parking lot, which has about 20 spaces and is free to park.”
“My dog and I used to always go to Lewisville but I've moved and now we will go here and it's the perfect replacement.”
“When I'm hiking, and have to constantly be looking at my feet, watching out for roots and loose rocks, I don't get to enjoy my surroundings much at all.”
“What a great park and location for biking, hiking, running, walking, easy accessible for all fitness and physical levels.”
