Confirmed from Meadow 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.
Recreational park with a creek, walking trails & fields for softball & football, plus playgrounds.
What runners say about Meadow Park
“Clean playgrounds and lot's of fun,I go there almost everyday.”
Came back to give a better review. It’s much better than it used to be. Perfect spot to go get out of the sun or be in the sun. Glasgow park has no shaded parking spots, so now this is my favorite in the area due to that.
Meadow Park is very peaceful. It has a track of you like to walk or jog. Swing sets for the kids, and directly across the street, there is a dog park! You definitely will enjoy yourself here!
The park was great ! nice place for soccer game.picnic .walking and many more .
So, there is one thing to know before you go to the park, rain, if it rained recently you don’t want to be anywhere near there, they literally built the park there because they had nothing else to do with the land and couldn’t build houses.
