Confirmed from Quakertown 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.
Clean park with a basketball court, seating areas and a playground. Picnics, sunsets and grassy patches are also popular.
What runners say about Quakertown Park
“The trail that leads all through the grounds is very well maintained and has lots of great spots to see the little stream and see nature.”
“Quakertown Park has several dozen beautiful large pecan, red oak, and white oak trees.”
Quakertown Park is a lovely park located next to the Emily Fowler Library. It has several walking paths and picnic tables, a large play area with swings, a slide, a musical instrument, and more for children to play on. There is a restroom area as well as street parking. But the best part is the trees.
We came here to have a walk and its nice with alot of history to learn. Conveniently located near the pool and playground, what more can one ask for. Very nice well kept piece of property and very enjoyable.
A lot of open space and naturally abundant. A majority of the area is made up of grass and trees which gives a lot of room for visitors to do their own activities (picnic, crafts, reading, exercise). The playground is also quite big too so visitors with larger groups have more space to run around and play.
Love this park, but not a huge fan of the rock wall and tripple slide being gone. There’s also a couple across the street who likes to just stand outside and watch anyone over regular playground age hanging out there. Teens and adults can swing too!
