Confirmed from Schefelker 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 Schefelker Park
Nice little playground and alot of free space to throw a frisbee . There is also a wooded area with a trail that goes through it.
I enjoy walking up there and sitting on the bench and listening to the birds and watching nature. Great to get fresh air. Helps to clear the head from troubles. There are some new playground equipment equipment for kids too.
A nice place to relax. The park is giant, but there are a variety of swings for children, and one that mothers can use with their child. The nearby trail is a nice stroll outside.
