Confirmed from Lions Town & Country 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.
Park featuring an amphitheater, a pavilion, picnic areas, a walking track, ball fields & more.
What runners say about Lions Town & Country Park
“Lots of people but beautiful it's a great place for baseball and softball.”
Lots of people but beautiful it's a great place for baseball and softball. Also, the walking trail provides workout equipment along the way. It's very beautiful, especially when the waterfall is running filling the lake and the river that runs through it.
I was there to take some quinceañera pics and I love that the parking lot has shade structures! It's a nice place for family reunions and for photoshoots!
I go to this park at least once a week. I take my kids and our dogs and enjoy a walk together and of course the playground is a plus.
The park trail is currently under construction; however, I was able to go for a run this morning, and the half-trail had been set . This represents a significant enhancement to our park.
