Confirmed from Prospect 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 Prospect Park
It's a nice place for a casual walk in the woods that is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. The trail is obvious and more than adequately marked. There are even a few boardwalks for areas that are seasonally wet.
I took my GSD early to let her run wild and she had a blast. I enjoyed the trails and the greenery
