Confirmed from Schemansky 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.

★★★★★ — Daniel , Dec 2016

Have been coming to this park for 20+ years. Always kept up and relatively clean. The city takes good care of this park and is always there year round taking out garbage, cutting grass, and fixing the walking/biking path around the park.

★★★★★ — Tony , Aug 2019

A nice and spacious park off of Outer Dr. with something for your whole family to do. From swings and playground equipment for the younger people to basketball for the teenagers. There's also wide open spaces and huge trees for shade and a track that goes around the whole park for walking, running or riding bikes.

★★★★★ — Bashan , Sep 2020

Very nice,clean, peaceful park!. Kids can use the swings or slide and climb and have fun. You also can play basketball half court,the court needs to be painted again. There's a water fountain and you can do your daily walking around the park or with your dog. Nice overall to come too!

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.
