Confirmed from Spring 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.

Very spacious park, well kept, quiet and plenty of parking spots all over. Nice pond with lots of ducks and turtles. Plenty of walking trails.

This park is great except for all the Canadians 😁 geese of course! There is a small spring fed lake to walk around. I saw some kids fishing. There are three or four playground areas including one for specially abled children care of Eagle Scouts.

Public restroom is past the dog park, next to the ball field on the right. The dog park is great. It's clean, it has a nice large run, and water in the entrance so it easy to convince your dog to get back on the leash. There are benches and doggie bags stocked. It has both a large and small dog enclosure.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
