Confirmed from Loman 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.

“Nice little park Quiet there is a covered structure with picnic tables.”

I love this place I could stay here all day! This is a great place to come even if you're a tourist or a local there are picnic tables, places to jog or ride a bike. Ice rink, football, skate park, basketball, baseball, tennis.. I probably left a few out there's a multitude of things to do here!

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

“i heard things about it from ppl that have lived near for a long time (mainly that kids use to pee down the slide) other than that kids have fun and dogs too.”
