Confirmed from Pine Woods 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 Pine Woods Park
“A gorgeous place, quiet with one picnic table”
“Good spots to sit by a stream for quiet time.”
Small but sweet natural park with a mowed grass path along the creek and a lovely large open area, shaded along its edges - great place for throwing a ball for the dog, with no one else here on a Sunday morning in July. Also has a picnic bench next to parking area, and park bench overlooking the creek.
Great walking trail that runs along the creek. This is a mulch covered dirt trail with creekside benches. There is also a large grass field that can be used for other outdoor activities. I have seen a good amount of people fishing here as well.
Small field and a trail through the woods. Good spots to sit by a stream for quiet time. Just a couple of benches.
