Confirmed from Patriot 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 Patriot Park
“This park has a fantastic walking track, is very level, clean, and has kids playing there constantly.”
“I strongly suggest a canopy to provide shade over the slides.”
The park is new and nice. The playground was nice. There were people playing pickle ball nice courts. The trails are nicely paved saw many people walking and riding bikes. Many of the people here today had younger toddlers. Bathrooms clean.
This is a great park, there is lots of space to run around, there is a play ground, there are water fountains and bathrooms, they are basketball and pickle ball courts, there is a walking path around the park, and there are shade pavilion. It’s a good park! We come a lot.
This park has a fantastic walking track, is very level, clean, and has kids playing there constantly. There's been live music a couple times that we've went as well, due to having a practicing stage for community use. It's a wonderful contribution to the community.
Great park to go for a walk or just have a seat and relax under one of the Pavillions. There's a Basketball Court and Pickle Ball! Also a small playground for small kids!
