Confirmed from Saint Ferdinand 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.

“It is very clean, family friendly and pet friendly.”

Love St. Ferdinand Park!!!! There is a amazing pond full of ducks and geese. They are simply amazing to watch. There are a few pavilions and two playgrounds for elementary aged children. 🛝 If you like walking, most walk around the circular road around the park.

★★★★★ — Crowned , Nov 2024

Well kept park with plenty to do! Baseball fields, sand volleyball, tennis and pickleball courts, fishing and pavilions. The path around the park is about three quarters of a mile. It also connects to the Sunset Trail. Great for walking, running or riding your bike!

★★★★★ — Rachelle , Jul 2022

Lots of space to Park front and back, Walk and Work out, the pond in the back with the water fall has plenty of shady spots to cool down on a hot summer day. Play grounds for kids. Walk pets and Fishing for Florissant residents.

I love bringing my kids to this park. the grounds are always clean and they have a huge pond with to fountains that change colors at night. There's a good walk path for people who would like to walk or run. There are a couple different playground / jungle gyms and a set of swings.

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.
