Confirmed from Phragmites 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.
What runners say about Phragmites Park
“There is a gorgeous water front area, many types of song birds, and a sandy area with cactus.”
I love this little park. There is a gorgeous water front area, many types of song birds, and a sandy area with cactus. Love that they covered the lot and entryway with some broken up asphalt so that you no longer get muddy. One less star because of all of the poison Ivy at the edges of the path.
Its a great place to go for a walk nature at its best. Walk to the water or along a stream on the south side of 25A. There's also a walk around the pond on the opposite side (North side) of 25A. Parking on the south side of 25A only!
Small but lovely park by the shore. You can do a trail in half hour. If you have small kids it's perfect and they'll have a great time playing with mussels.
Nice little spot for a walk to get away. Good view of the bay on one side and a nice little pond on the other.
