Confirmed from San Jacinto 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.
Public park with a playground, basketball court, and facilities for picnicking.
What runners say about San Jacinto Park
“The park is clean and there is rarely anyone else there.”
This is the perfect park for walking my friends dog. The park is clean and there is rarely anyone else there. The dog loves sniffing along the little creek that runs through the park. There are plenty of trees and tables as well as some scattered benches.
Excellent park to take children and has a good paved walking path around the perimeter. There is a drinking fountain, restrooms and and a sprinkler play area for the summer.
