Confirmed from Ralph C. Dills 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.
Riverfront park featuring walking, jogging & biking paths plus a playground & basketball court.

A Hidden Gem in the Neighborhood This park near the LA river bike trail is a wonderful spot for families. The recently upgraded playground is a hit with the kids, and the walking trails are peaceful and scenic.
Great park for children and adults. Has a nice trail for walking and a nice fun playground for children. Hidden little secret park. It is right next to the bike path. Only downside is finding parking.
Our first time here and it has the connecting to the LA river walking bike area. I guess whoever initially built the park forgot humans use the restroom. So there are portable potty’s which have a hand washing area inside. So win win. My favorite part is all the plush green plants. Thanks.
Came on a Thursday afternoon, it was really hot so there was literally nobody but myself, lol. Looks nice for a little jog or a stroll along the park. It’s very green and the ambiance is very nice, right next to a trail for biking.
