Confirmed from Smedley Park (Delaware County 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.
Comprising over 140 acres, this wooded park offers baseball & soccer fields, a playground & a trail.
