Confirmed from Shirley's Arbor 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.

A wonderful family walking park with exercise equipment, benches, and a playground! The playground is filled with rubber-mulch, has 2 slides, a plastic merry-go-round, monkey bars, swings, and more. Non-motorized vehicles allowed on the path (scooters, bikes, skateboards), as well as leashed pets.
Another great in this great city. A great 1/2 mile loop to either, walk, run, and even to walk your pet, to keep them healthy as well. A well kept up park. Thanks to our city grounds crew.
The park has a nice .5 mile loop and exercise and stretch boards that show you how to perform various exercises and stretches. There is also a small playground for the kiddos that have some nice equipment that I would have loved to have at my playgrounds during my childhood.
