Confirmed from Rossignol 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.
Park featuring a playground, picnic areas, baseball and basketball courts, and tennis courts.
What runners say about Rossignol Park
“Best courts around, typically a very clean park corner to corner and great wooded/shaded spaces.”
Good park it's in a good location that's near a lot of shops, the most prominent thing here is the play structure that has two areas, one for 3 to 5 year olds and then another 6 and older.
Rossi Park is great, but it's amazing when you discover the 2nd entrance with shaded parking. Best courts around, typically a very clean park corner to corner and great wooded/shaded spaces. Underrated gem perpetual
Very nice park and lot to offer. Skatepark, playground, horseshoes (bring your own shoes), field, walking path to water.
Great place for an outside lunch. Tennis and basketball court. There is a path for walking. Very spacious.
