Confirmed from Meadows 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.

Natural surfaceRestrooms

Well-maintained, grassy park with a baseball field, a playground, slides and swings.

What runners say about Meadows Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (77 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 7 mentions

“Well kept, lush green grass and a great playground for kids of all ages.”

Well kept playground with a pavilion nearby which is good for cookouts and the like, have a very nice trail for walking along, a basketball court with metal rims so the basketball bounces more off more than if it were a normal rim, well maintained baseball diamonds, and a large field which could be good for flag…

★★★★★ — Joshua , Nov 2022

Great walking path for our older dog! Love seeing the swans every summer on the pond.

★★★★★ — Becky , Sep 2019

Fun park for all with playground equipment, ball field, open areas to run, walking paths, wild flowers, and a pond.

★★★★☆ — Minipats , Jun 2020

It was fun' the field was fun to ride on and the hills are fun to go down and that's a lot of shade

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 do wish there was a public restroom here, otherwise, I would have stayed longer.”
