Confirmed from Simms 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.
Public park featuring a recreation center, picnic facilities, ball fields & a basketball court.
What runners say about Simms Park
“I gave them a five because is was an nice park, and also clean.”
“I really enjoy taking a stroll through the shaded parking lot while checking everything out.”
A nice and clean park with lots of different things to do. I personally really like the outdoor gym equipment. I brought my niece here a few times and she also really loves the playground here. Also, my dog has lots of space to run around in the grass
Love this park we come here to walk all the time and always love the events the park has. Great equipment has been updated through the years
Thus place is really cleaned up! Great running/waking track now with a full workout area and renovated park for the kids.
I gave them a five because is was an nice park, and also clean. But there bathrooms was scary when i walked through there it was no door when i walked inside the bathroom. I mean if i was to use it and people walk in there they can see me they need doors
