Confirmed from Silver Lake 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.
Casual recreational space featuring a playground swimming pool, tennis courts and a basketball court.
What runners say about Silver Lake Park
“Not very crowded, perfect amount of shade for parents to stand under while watching their kiddos, close parking, super clean facilities & park, and my kids loved it!”
This is a nice little park. It has tennis courts, a jungle gym with rock wall, three or so slides, swing sets and a walking/running trail. It was quiet and clean.
Not very crowded, perfect amount of shade for parents to stand under while watching their kiddos, close parking, super clean facilities & park, and my kids loved it! Definitely recommend.
