Confirmed from Memorial Garden 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.
What runners say about Memorial Garden Park
“Walking trail around the pond makes for great cardio exercise with a great view.”
“Very family friendly and close to the mall and other things to do.”
Awesome and beautiful place to take the kids and take pics with family. Good walking area around the pond with lots of flowers along the trail. Plenty of ducks and geese to feed along with turtles. Small waterfall area with a metal bull and small flower garden area by bathrooms which are also nice and clean.
Nice park for an evening stroll with the kiddos and the dogs, but please, pick up after both! Walking trail around the pond makes for great cardio exercise with a great view. The ducks are fun for the kids to watch and feed, but make sure to only feed the approved foods so as they aren't harmed.
Nice little place to walk and take out the family. I wouldn't suggest this place if you're looking to train for long distance running. Its more for beginners who plan to do more walking since the sidewalks are a little narrow and the distance is 0.60 miles per lap. Nonetheless, nice little park!
Nice to walk and look at statues and the birds of feathers. Wish people would stop vandalizing everything!
