Confirmed from Oakmont 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 featuring play equipment, open grasslands, and paved pathways perfect for walking.
What runners say about Oakmont Park
“The park is still as beautiful as ever, however the one area in the entire 3 parks for kids to play was burned to the ground.”
Wonderful walking trails and even some rock climbing if you're brave enough! Beautiful views. My favorite place to come for a nature walk.
Great trail, with a hidden park for this kids, and a waterfall for those that walk far enough
This park is has amazing! It’s very big, it has lots of wooded and open areas, i often refer to it as a “mini national park”. There are also a lot of private places where you can go sit and chill. JUST MAKE SURE NOT TO PARK YOUR CAR IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS SURROUNDING THE PARK!!
We found this place when we were tryinf to kill time waiting for my son at his tutoring sessions twice a week. My 7 year old still loves the playground despite it being a little small, and we love the trail. It does NOT go in a circle around the park, which we found out the hard way. Great little park :)
