Confirmed from Penn Pump 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.
Park with picnic tables and a playground, plus a creek for fishing and wading.
What runners say about Penn Pump Park
“A very beautiful walk in most areas, walking in nature and along the river and a couple of bridges that go over the river as well.”
“Enjoy lots of shade, areas to cook, a Creek to swim or fish in, and a walking path that takes you quite a distance either direction.”
“Very calm and beautiful park to walk and cycle around!”
An amazing place to bring the whole family to! Enjoy lots of shade, areas to cook, a Creek to swim or fish in, and a walking path that takes you quite a distance either direction.
Fun spot to grill and play around. I mainly come here to run or walk, rollerblade, etc on the paved walking path which goes a decent distance in both directions! Can also access the walking path at different parking lots too.
The trail is mostly cleared of snow and ice and walkable in the winter. Some of the other local trails are neglected all winter.
Very calm and beautiful park to walk and cycle around! Kind cyclists around too :)
