Confirmed from Rick Klein Park North'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.

Green space offering a playground with swings and picnic tables, along with a walking trail.

Very nice place to go walking but I wish people would clean up your dogs mess

★★★★☆ — Lupe , Jul 2022

This park is great for walking. It has a long path and the walk takes up to 30mins to walk the whole path. Also great for walking your dog. There is a car park at the start of the walk and one at the end. Police also patrol here often so it’s safe to walk. There is public toilets and no food stores here.

★★★★☆ — Travelwithmidz , May 2025

Great walking trail. Poop ever where though. Playground was clean and kids loved it

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
