Confirmed from Stephen 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.

“Absolutely love this park its well kept, up to date, and has plenty of area to play for children of all ages.”

Stephens Park is just a nice laid back stroll in the park kinda place to go on any day you just want to get out and breathe some air. A nice friendly place with friendly locals. Old, young, children playing in the playground, people walking dogs, picnics, soccer, baseball practice, tennis. A little bit of everything.

★★★★★ — Sheila , Sep 2020

Stephen Park is a great place to get outside. Dog friendly walking path with bags and disposal units. Baseball fields, soccer fields for the big and the small, tennis courts, a walking loop of about a half mile, and a couple of play places for the kids to climb around on!

★★★★★ — Rosemary , Jul 2023

Very wide open and kid friendly with softball fields and a tennis court. The bathrooms are also unlocked most of the time and that is very helpful as well. They just paved paths in between the fields so it's no longer just gravel paths.

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.
