Confirmed from Peace 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.

🌾 quiet & peaceful 12 mentions

“It lives up to its name because even when you aren’t the only person there it is still just as peaceful and serene as if you were.”

We stopped here on our way through town to get a snack and let the kids run a bit. There was a nice shaded pavillion (a little messy, but still usable) and plenty of run for the kids to run. There is no playground equipment, but the cultural displays were interesting.

★★★★☆ — Kristalynne , Jul 2021

My favorite outdoor space in elko. Great for having a walk. This park does not have a playground but is a quiet place for exercise, reflection, walking dogs, or having a picnic. In the early spring a stream runs through it. Paths not really maintained in winter, can be icy if that's what the weather is doing.

★★★★★ — Rebecca , Mar 2024

Well taken care of. Trails are near street and houses but taken care of. Wish it was longer

★★★★☆ — Kim , Jul 2021

Very nice small park. Interesting displays, nice trails and attractive natural landscaping. Our springer spaniel enjoyed it off-leash and on.

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.
