Confirmed from Pawnee Park Sertomaland East'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.
Clean area, with a fishing pond and a disc golf course in addition to 2 playgrounds.
What runners say about Pawnee Park Sertomaland East
“The shelter was great the women's bathroom was very clean but i couldn't flush the stool in the handicap stall”
“It was a great place with a beautiful view.”
Nice playground, restrooms are nearby and open in the summer, unfortunately people living on the river and kids/young adults seem to vandalize them a lot, but they always get cleaned up as soon as it's reported or every week day, whichever comes first.
2 play grounds that can appeal to any age. Has a large shelter. Right next to some fishing spots. Lots of trees to give plenty of shade. Also has a bathroom that's just a short walk. It's fairly clean and updated
The playgrounds are in need of an update but the green space is great for walks and bike rides
