Confirmed from Siems 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 featuring a playground and fields for soccer and other games, plus a basketball court and a path for jogging and biking.
What runners say about Siems Park
“Very clean and my sister lives next to the side of the field's where they play soccer.”
Nice place to have a nice walk with your dog or ride your bike. it's very clean and beautiful
This park has a nicely paved .75 mile walking/running loop and a lot of open green space. The park wraps around so it is bigger than it looks when you first pull into the parking area. We took our dog and was pleased to see doggie bag stations at several points.
Clean park with a trail surrounding it for exercise, a new basketball court for playing basketball, a fun children's play area and plenty of wide open fields for playing soccer or flying a kite or whatever activity drives your interest.
Sand hill cranes were flying overhead! Perfect spring day. Great clear path.
