Confirmed from Mondauk Common 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.
Family-friendly park featuring playgrounds, baseball fields and walking trails for exercise.
What runners say about Mondauk Common Park
“Clean, no pets, very thoughtful administration, safe and nice children’s playgrounds, big parking lot, clean bathrooms that always have toilet paper and a soap.”
“Beautiful park with lots to do for both big kids & little kids!”
“The playground has many trees (shade), so in hot summer days kids can stay safe.”
“A great park for kids (and adults) of all ages!”
This is a really nice park. Don’t wear black shoes though because the gravel trail will make them dusty. Also you can’t bring your dogs or ride a bike. I have neither so this park is for me. Other than that there are many things to do.
Very clean and friendly area to walk. There’s plenty of people around (so you’ll feel safe). It’s not noisy or too busy (for those of you who like a little isolation so you can focus). The entire trail is 1 mile so you definitely get some good lapses in.
A great park for kids (and adults) of all ages! Many pieces of playground equipment for various age groups, along with basketball courts, open fields, disc golf, and sport fields on the other side of the park.
Beautiful public park with a 1 mile jogging/walking trail, playground, basketball courts, volleyball, horseshoes, baseball fields, covered pavilions, picnic tables, barbecues, trees, grass. Plenty of parking. Open dawn to dusk and very safe.
