Confirmed from Merrel Medley 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.

“It’s small, but everything is in good repair and usually really clean.”

Great walking trail for those of us trying to ease back into exercise. Track is flat with lots of benches and trees. Great for bird watching too. Always feel safe there before dark.

★★★★★ — Suzy , Jul 2023

Very nice park with a playground and nice big walking trail. There are a couple of backstops here for softball or t-ball practice. We're grow folks so we like to play kickball in this park.

★★★★★ — Lucky , Feb 2022

This park has a walking trail that goes through the whole park.it has a small park for children . A baseball back drop . A nice open field for soccer . Has plenty of trees for shady reading (season may vary ).

★★★★★ — Nathaniel , Mar 2018

Great little park for families. I came here to jog. If you do the entire figure 8 it’s about .67 miles. I wanted to get a 6 mile run in and I felt like I was starting to see people several times. Most people were here walking.

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.
