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.

Very clean, seems very safe, lots of shade and the Susan river runs by the trail in this small park with a green lawn and tables and benches and a playground. Seems like families come here on the weekends and it's a pleasant atmosphere to bring children.
Nice mostly shady park, pleasant for families. My only 2 issues are, there's no shade over the swings so they're very hot in the summer time. There's a very small play area for small children.
The whole park has lights so if you want to run the kids a bit late its nicely lit. bathrooms Are still unavailable strolling aLone in this area tho. I don't suggest. a pair is always best
Nice park, they have spots where you can barbecue with tables and nice, shaded areas. Clean bathrooms.
