Confirmed from Salisbury Township Community 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 Salisbury Township Community Park
“Two playgrounds, walking track, tennis courts, basketball/hockey courts, dog park, soccer fields, baseball/softball fields, rest rooms very clean and well maintained.”
“Beautiful dog park tucked on the back side of this regular park that is such a gem.”
Love the dog park area! I'm glad the grass is growing in there to cover the sand. My Bully loves to play there nice big area for her to run. I bring water for her. Also is a nice walking trail around the park but dog have to stay on the other side of the small stream. Please dont take the dog park out.
The best thing about this park is the vicinity, it's very close to home which means it's easy to swing by and not feel bad if I don't spend a long time. I really only use the little skating rinks that are available as I'm learning how to Roller Skate. The downside is that neither of the rinks are very well kept.
We visited this lovely dog park on a hot summer day. It is secure and a wide open space with even a few toys to be shared. There is jugs of water to be given to the dogs. The only drawback was there was absolutely no shade. The small shed where the water & toys was was hotter than the outside.
Awesome I go there once a week all the way from Quarryville because I like your walking sidewalk because all around the park and I know just how far I'm walking with one lap. Like I said before they always do a good job keeping the bathrooms clean and the park as well kept good job Township keep up the great work
