Confirmed from Partridge Point 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.
Rustic park featuring trails and scenic views, plus a beach for kayaking and fishing.
What runners say about Partridge Point Park
“Beautiful rocky shore with wetlands.”
Beautiful, rustic Park. Not a swim and play on swings park. Absolutely gorgeous scenery and trails to walk. Road is a little rough but it's so worth it.
Beautiful rocky shore with wetlands. Low clearance vehicles may have an issue navigating the shortish gravel access road. Worth the visit for half an hour or longer.
