Confirmed from Marjorie Davis 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 clean park with young children's activities, including a small path for bikes/walking/skateboarding/ & several of park benches to relax.”

I grew up in Elmhurst almost my entire life. This is where I would go to clear my mind. I can't express how this park helped me get through my childhood. So many amazing memories, it beautiful at night when your a teen just trying to relax with friends, or in the summer when your a young kid running though the grass…

★★★★★ — Adalberto , Mar 2020

Great place for a walk, 1/4 mile track. Basketball hoops, baseball fields, playground, community garden, fruit trees, port a potty, water fountain, dog poop bags, park area, a couple of tables, very sunny.

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.
