Confirmed from Lynndale 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 7 mentions

“The trails off into the shade of evergreen foliage one should accurately imagine of this gorgeous state are displayed at Lynndale Park.”

Fantastic park. Very tranquil despite being in the city, wide well-maintained paths. A few significant hills that can be easily avoided. Ample parking. Will spend plenty of time here.

★★★★★ — Damian , Mar 2021

The trails off into the shade of evergreen foliage one should accurately imagine of this gorgeous state are displayed at Lynndale Park. There's also an off-leash dog park, skate park, sports fields, a large covered picnic area, tennis courts, and a decent playground.

★★★★★ — James , Apr 2023

Lots of trails and nice shady places to rest and eat lunch under a tree. But too many dogs off leash. This is a photo of my girl in training. I get too nervous when other people allow their dogs off leash. It makes training way harder! Even when she's good enough to be off leash herself we won't.

★★★★☆ — Gina , May 2022

Great park with a lof of things going on. Only complaint is that when there's multiple birthdays, a baseball game and people playing basketball there's not that much parking in the park. There is plenty of overflow parking in the neighborhoods though.

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.
