Confirmed from Purple 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.
Spacious park featuring disc golf, a playground, volleyball courts and swings.
What runners say about Purple Park
“It’s really well maintained, with plenty of paved walkways for jogging or an evening stroll.”
“It just looks poorly maintained, which is unfortunate, because it's an otherwise very nice park with a beautiful green space all around it.”
“Purple Park is calm and peaceful—great for relaxing or doing some yoga.”
“The playground is super fun, and big enough for all ages.”
Nice little neighborhood park in Superior, CO. Purple Park is calm and peaceful—great for relaxing or doing some yoga. It’s really well maintained, with plenty of paved walkways for jogging or an evening stroll. There’s also a big play area for kids and a decent number of benches to just sit and chill.
It's a nice enough park. The playground is little far away from the parking lot, and has rocks instead of rubber or wood chips, which makes it a little difficult for my 2 year old to walk around, but there is a nice variety of equipment to play on.
Beautiful quiet park with lots of open grass for pups to run around. Cute creek and ponds around as well. Paths aren’t too far to different parks or even some amenities. Grew up here and glad to see the park hasn’t changed much and is so well kept
Absolutely LOVE this park!! So beautiful! Great area for kids to play, lots of grass areas to picnic, tons of walking with sidewalks winding thru the park, and great for picture taking.
