Confirmed from Shallowford 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.
Park with a playground, picnic tables, and a trail.
What runners say about Shallowford Park
A small pocket park located on the corner of Shallowford Rd and Shallowford Place. There is a big open grassy area, an ADA Playground, several picnic shelters, and a small walking trail. There is not much parking; just 4 parking spaces and 2 handicapped spots.
For a small neighborhood park this place is fantastic. 3 or 4 picnic tables, all covered. Nice big grassy area for running around, and a playground for little ones.
