Confirmed from Riverside 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 Riverside Park
“It's quiet and the trails by the river are cool if you can find them.”
The place isn't very big but it's great! There is a walking trail that goes all around the property, along the Lamprey River, to a sand pit on the back side. There's a dog park right along the trail where they have a fenced in area for your pooch to roam around.
There were a few trails, some are smoother than others. Lots of picnic areas and trails along the Lamprey River. I went to walk my dog on the trails with full intentions of avoiding the dog park (my dog is too much, too soon for other dogs and I had seen on Facebook it wasn't maintained).
This was definitely a beloved park at one point. Lots of things dedicated to people but doesn't seem overly maintained anymore. The playground equipment is in decent shape but a mowing would help. It's quiet and the trails by the river are cool if you can find them.
Beautiful property to bring your pets for a huuuge area all fenced in and let them run and get tuckered out. Wonderful family spot also. Bring a picnic basket and enjoy!!!
