Confirmed from Orchard Gardens 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.
Serene green space featuring basketball and tennis courts.
What runners say about Orchard Gardens Park
“Its got supper clean bathrooms and wonderful place to visit to be with this nice weather, and seeing lost of friends and family's enjoy each other.”
“Beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful scenery are the greenbelt bike trail pretty neat run all the way to mission college go across the creek sliced”
It's a small park but not many people seem to come here, and it's a really nice walk for a little outing. There is also a spot to barbecue and I think that would actually be really nice with how secluded it is. Also the swings are great.
Nice park with public tennis courts, basketball court etc. There is a separate children's play area. There is a washroom area as well. There is a small running path.
