Confirmed from O'Fallon Family Sports 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.
Sports park offering on-site parking, 8 ball diamonds, soccer pitches & changing facilities.
What runners say about O'Fallon Family Sports Park
“I was impressed with how exceptionally clean the entire park was being there were SO many people in one place.”
“Beautiful scenery, like waterfalls, playgrounds and neighborhood.”
We were in from out of town for the soccer tournaments. I was impressed with how exceptionally clean the entire park was being there were SO many people in one place. They were hosting softball tournaments on one end of the park and soccer tournaments at the other end. To say the least it was a very busy place.
This family sports park in the neighborhood is good for a quick walk or run 2-3 miles in the morning, evening anytime. Beautiful scenery, like waterfalls, playgrounds and neighborhood. I loved it!
Went to this park a few times while I was in town. Great two mile track around the park. Just wish I’d known about it earlier.
This park is a hidden little gem. I’ve been to many parks across the county and honestly this is one of the best neighborhood parks. If you like walking they have a nice trail about 2 miles that is safe for walking. The splash pad is awesome for the little ones.
