We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Lawrence 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.
What runners say about Lawrence Park
Plenty of playing fields (see baseball and soccor) I wasn't there for those though I was just walking and it turns out there are plenty of paths. Beware when big kids are playing baseball and you are walking on the path that leads to the culvert under the road found 5 or 6 home runs down there.
