Confirmed from Old Spanish Trail 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“It’s a little hot this time of year but still just as beautiful the sunsets are gorgeous!”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“Nice, quiet park nestled in a very nice neighborhood.”

Nice park. Three laps around interior concrete walkway equals 1 mile. The outer sand pathway is a good walk and easier on the feet. There are alternate paths that slightly elevated.

★★★★★ — Lawrence , Mar 2024

This is my go to park for morning walks. The path around the perimeter is marked with distance so you are able to track how far you have gone. The grounds are well kept and restrooms are cleaned near daily in the mornings. The play structure has a softer rubber flooring throughout.

★★★★★ — Jesse , Oct 2023

Drove by this park the other day, so I had to bring my 2 boys to come check it out. Nice, quiet park nestled in a very nice neighborhood. The park isn't too big. It does have a nice walking path, with some tidbits of history relating to Nevada posts all along the path.

★★★★★ — Kat , Nov 2024

Great Quiet and Clean park. Has four gazebos w/BBQ pitts. Two playgrounds, one for bigger kids and the other for the smaller babies. Clean walking trail and open restrooms with working water fountains

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.
