Confirmed from O.W. Ribble 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.

Quiet

Park, with swings, a slide and picnic tables.

“Nice quiet place to enjoy a quick little meal or a walk around the park on sidewalks and a little bridge to add to its beauty.”

A great park with cooking grills and tables for picnics and sitting to watch the geese in the pond. Nice quiet place to enjoy a quick little meal or a walk around the park on sidewalks and a little bridge to add to its beauty.

This is a great place to do some walking. My gir6and i have walked here for the past two days. While walking around the park for an hour at a time I have noticed that hardly nobody stop at the stop sings on 58th and Ave U. Shame on you people! This is a park where people walk and children play.....

★★★★☆ — George , Aug 2021

Plenty of parking! If you park a car here and go walking, you don't have to judge how far to go before turning around, because you will just go in a circle anyway, and right back to your car. I think it is about 100 yards to go all the way around the pond. Peaceful environment. 😁

Nice neighborhood park. Walking track, playground equipment, picnic areas, and a duck pond. Lots of space to run around and several garbage cans spread around for clean up. Take care around the duck pond as birds do not care where they leave droppings.

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.
