Confirmed from Old Mill 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.

What runners say about Old Mill Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (19 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

A happy place to walk. It can be pretty muddy and some of the walkways overrun with water if it’s been raining. Otherwise nice paved walking path.

★★★★☆ — Amy , Jun 2021

Small paved loop around a pond, there is shade for half of it. You can do whatever you want here and get away on the freeway nearby very easily.

★★★★☆ — Matthew , Oct 2025

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.
