Confirmed from South Hills 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 with various athletic fields & courts, including disc golf, plus walking trail & picnic areas.

“De best for me have everything that I need including dips and pull up bars and is very clean 👌”
“It is a beautiful park though- love to bring the kids in the fall to see all the changing leaves and the fall weather.”
The South Hills Park is one of my favorite places in Lebanon. 5 minutes from down town and plenty of parking. Walking/ riding paths, playgrounds, Basketball and Volleyball courts, Football and Baseball fields, workout stations, and both Frisbee and traditional Golfing areas.
Great place to take the kids or to go out and get some exercise. Has a nice walking/biking path. Fields for baseball/softball. Volleyball courts. Basketball courts. Tennis courts. Disc golf. 2 playgrounds. Restrooms. Pavilions you can rent out and a few picnic tables if you want to pack lunch.
This park is massive! Very clean & well maintained- despite its size. It’s popular among locals as it has various activities for its visitors of all ages to participate in.
Beautifully maintained park, a great walking/biking path, plenty of outdoor activities and the tennis and pickle-ball courts were recently renovated. Great disc golf course and several different parking locations on different sides of the park.
