Confirmed from Montella 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.

Beautiful park. Great for exercising. Trees are the most beautiful here. Without trees we wouldnt have shade & homes for the wildlife on Earth. ! Study your trees & all the things they provide for us & wildlife ! Plant a tree. Save the Planet !

I am super happy they built a bathroom in the park and replaced the old playground equipment. (Even though I miss it😅.) The park has a big sidewalk circumference, which is good for walking, skating, and whatnot. The park may be full in after-school hours, but kids have fun.

★★★★★ — Vegliany , Jan 2022

A neighborhood park with great shade and activities. Between the school and civic center so lots of kids. Highly recommended.

★★★★★ — Doug , Nov 2024

Montella Park is a paradise for kids! With its expansive playgrounds, exciting jungle gyms, and colorful slides, it's like a dream come true for little adventurers. The park's spacious fields provide plenty of room for running, playing games, and letting imaginations soar.

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.
