Confirmed from Preston 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.
Kid-friendly area featuring a playground and a baseball diamond.
What runners say about Preston Park
“Nice playground facility, very clean.”
“Nice little park, has a baseball diamond and a small play area for children mostly fenced in usually very quiet in the morning I like to go eat my breakfast there”
Hidden park and playground behind the K Of C castle off Memorial Dr. In Chicopee. Nice playground facility, very clean. There were lots of dirt bike tracks all over tearing up the field and quite a few paths leading into the woods.
Been going for walks in the woods there since I went to elementary school
