Confirmed from Rolling Hills 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.
Neighborhood park featuring playgrounds, a picnic area, a basketball court & a grassy area.
What runners say about Rolling Hills Park
“It’s clean, well-shaded, and even has a water fountain for those post-play sips.”
“This is a beautiful neighborhood park.”
“We parked on a residential street side where we saw one play area for kids with a lovely shaded sitting area for watchful parents nearby.”
“I stopped here because it was the closest place to pull over while getting a ticket, the park was very nice and quiet as I waited for that citation.”
“The pathway is shaded for a good portion of the park so we came here to walk our dog on a warm day.”
This park is the perfect place for a quiet and relaxing time. It provides great seating under shaded areas for parents and guardians looking to keep a close eye on their children. There are two play areas, one for 3-5 years of age, and another area for 6 years and up.
Nice little neighborhood park. Relaxing and very quiet. The pathway is shaded for a good portion of the park so we came here to walk our dog on a warm day. He had a great time and so did we. Will definitely visit again.
A perfect spot for both toddlers and big kids! This gem has two separate playgrounds — one designed just for littles with toddler swings, and another for the older crew with regular swings. It’s clean, well-shaded, and even has a water fountain for those post-play sips.
It's a nice park for young families. It also has a half basketball court to play some pick-up games. The area is wide enough to walk your dog without running into other dogs. There's also some picnic spots in the southwestern portion with adequate shading
Trail conditions & character
