Confirmed from Sharp Springs 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.
360-acre park offering sports fields, fishing ponds, picnic shelters & an 18-hole disc golf course.
What runners say about Sharp Springs Park
“Also, there is a dog park and multiple (5 or 6) well maintained public bathrooms, several with covered picnic tables behind them.”
“The ponds are very beautiful and it's all over just a great place to go for a run, biking, cooking out with the family or friends or just to get out and see nature!”

“I have went during the day therefore it has been quiet & there aren't many people along the trail but even the few I've passed by have been sweet.”
Gorgeous park with miles of trails to walk, bike, run... quiet despite a busy road nearby.
Beautiful scenery. Disc Golf, Kayaking. All types of Activities. Plenty of biking and walking trails available. Stay on the trails, easy to get lost and the park is huge
Great place for so many things. It's huge considering the size of the town. There are multiple soccer fields, softball fields, acres of open greenscape, and a huge disc golf course. The walking path can take out to the boat ramps one-way or do a full loop around the park. You can also do both.
Amazing park! The trails are well kept, roads as well. The shelters are normally kept clean unless you catch it at the very end of a rental but that's just something that is unavoidable.
