Confirmed from Phelan 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.
Relaxed venue with a playground, skate park, and disc golf course.
What runners say about Phelan Park
“Well kept up and has sometime for anyone - jungle gym, baseball/local field, soccer, skate park and disc golf.”
“This well beautiful and maintained park has everything needed to enjoy a lovely day with the whole family.”
This is a beautiful park o the river. I often see people getting engagement or prom photos there. Some playground equipment, but the most interesting work out option is a circuit training section with things to lift, things to run/walk on, balance or do other kinds of activity.
This well beautiful and maintained park has everything needed to enjoy a lovely day with the whole family. There are playground equipment, basketball hoops, tennis courts, trails, two shelters, bathrooms, a water fountain, and even a skate park.
Not only is the park a blast, you can also walk over to the water and see all the turtles just sun bathing. This park is beautiful, very clean and the updates are amazing!!! We go here almost every sunny day. ❤️
