Confirmed from Pittsburg Parks & Recreation'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.
Small amusement park offering a range of rides aimed at younger children, plus a miniature golf course.
What runners say about Pittsburg Parks & Recreation
“Inexpensive, yet has all the essentials, nice 3 unit bath house, mostly clean, dump station, full hook ups, wifi.”
“It was an all-around nice day at a nice, quiet place with beautiful views.”
“This park is so peaceful and serene.”
It's a fabulous Park everybody there was really nice and it's easy to find it's clean and I had a really good time the grill was going the food was good I was just really impressed with the park except I'm in a wheelchair and it was surrounded where I was at by train tracks kiddieland tracks little tiny train tracks…
Pittsburg has done an amazing job keeping this place maintained! Some of my most precious childhood memories come back to me every time I pass the little railroad tracks. I'd love to see the little train up and running again! Maybe I should apply for the job! Go GORILLAS!
