Confirmed from Oliver W. Jones Memorial 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 Oliver W. Jones Memorial Park
Very nice small park. Two slightly dated playgrounds. A few bbqs and picnic tables. Clean peaceful atmosphere. Adjacent to Barryessa Creek trail. Not a 5 bc no bathrooms
A lovely park. The walking path around the whole park is dirt and gravel. One short path is concrete and there are restrooms on it.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says

- LightingRunners report lights on the path — useful for pre-dawn and after-work miles. Lighting and opening hours are separate things, so check both.

- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
- Stroller / wheelchairReported as smooth and step-free enough for a running stroller or a chair.
