Confirmed from Orchard Hills 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

“Perfect for a quiet walk with scenic trails, a fishing pond, and pickleball courts.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 6 mentions

“Nice quiet park with swings, drinking fountain and tennis court.”

Great hidden gem in the DTC area. Asphalt trails and a few dirt single track trails. Tennis courts, a basketball hoop within one of them, and a small set of swings. The trails connect to several others in the area too. Calm, peaceful area to relax, walk, or great for a run.

Orchard Hills Park in Greenwood Village is a peaceful gem! Perfect for a quiet walk with scenic trails, a fishing pond, and pickleball courts. The playground is great for kids, but bathrooms could be cleaner. A lovely spot!

★★★★★ — Mark , Apr 2025

Small but wonderful park with lots of nice sites, tennis courts, walking paths, pond, benches, views. Connects with other parks for a nice afternoon of wandering and exploring.

★★★★★ — T.M. , Nov 2021

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.
