Confirmed from Sierra Meadows 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.
Small park with a playground and picnic tables on grassy terrain.
What runners say about Sierra Meadows Park
“Great, small and clean park.”
“It's placed nicely in a residential area surrounded by beautiful neighborhood very close to the shopping center with grocery store.”
“We loved the shade that is made by few big trees standing next to each other and a little play ground for my little one.”
“Very peaceful, my little ones were able to have endless fun, lots of shady areas and benches.”
Like a flock of passerby birds in a day when the temp was 106, I was on my way back from lake tahoe to east bay with my kids. we grabbed some ice cream and beverages from the nearby safeway store and I told my kids let’s find a nearby park to rest for couple minutes and enjoy the ice cream. we found this park.
Never actually parked and spent time in this park but used to drive by it every day on my way to work. Beautiful shady areas with green grass, a few picnic tables, basketball court and play set for the kids. It even has a nice little perimeter trail to walk while the kids are playing.
Darling park! 10/10. We got Rocklin Donuts and Cinnamon (right around the corner) and went here after and it was the dreamiest afternoon. Lots of shade and tables and unique ways to play. We all loved it!
Great place to have a picnic or bbq. Nice and shady with a walking path. Bring the kids! Fun play structure for them.
