Confirmed from Llandover Woods Greenspace'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.
Kid-friendly trail-filled expanse with trees and golf-course views for walking and jogging.
What runners say about Llandover Woods Greenspace
“The greenery is absolutely beautiful, easily the match of numerous national parks.”
“Easy walk but save your energy for the end when you have to walk back up to the entrance- there is a short incline.”
Signage is light and we weren't sure what to expect. The lot has room for ~10 cars and the hike from there is down a moderately steep slope to meet up with a small loop. Shaded by trees and nice but a lot of hill for a toddler.
Great urban hike, offers a great work out if done at a fast pace, but is easy enough for young children if was at a leisurely pace. Oasis in the subarbs
What a charming little park! Trails are easy and beautiful. It's been a mini landscape photo destination for me over the last year.
Absolutely beautiful. You would never know that you were in Seattle. Wide paths, lots of ferns and trees. Some nice hills to get your heart rate up on. We were there at around 3:30 PM on a weekday and it was empty.

“Signage is light and we weren't sure what to expect.”
“Parking can be a bit tight on weekends, depending on which entrance you go to.”
