Confirmed from Norcross 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.
Park offering a playground, sports facilities, and picnic tables.
What runners say about Norcross Park
“It's very clean and has a fence to keep kids from running into the parking lot.”
“Amazing spot with a variety of things to play on for all ages!”
The playground is appropriate for 2.5 year olds and older due to the removal of the younger age equipment (weather related destruction). The field is large enough for running, plating, kite flying, etc., and the parking is adequately shaded.
Great playground. There's a porta potty right next to the play ground which is great for potty trained kids. It's very clean and has a fence to keep kids from running into the parking lot.
Multiple swings and also two different sets of play area within a fence lot. Big open space for children to run around.
