Confirmed from Peek Forest 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.

“We loved it before but the remodel is more kid friendly for all ages.”

My family really enjoys this park. The fountain is a great place to chill during the hot summer days & has great walking paths. 2024 update - the new build is wonderful!

★★★★★ — Kristen , Jul 2024

It's the 1st time I went and took my daughter. Very nice place. The playground is the rubbery fake grass type flooring which is very comfy on the feet and if the kids fall they don't scrape up, very nice and safe. The best park in a 50 mile radius.

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.
