Confirmed from Prairie Heights 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 Prairie Heights Park
A great little park with jungle gym for kids and ball diamonds. A branch library is also located here as well as a small quiet neighborhood for walking with no major hills or high traffic. Restrooms available.
Pretty park with lots of grassland and birds. There are grass trails that are mowed. There is a library and a playground.
Good park no parking other then on street or library so may need to walk a bit but cool little park none the less.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
