Confirmed from Stocksdale 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.
Green space with a playground, trails & multi-use athletic fields plus horseshoe pits & a dog park.
What runners say about Stocksdale Park
“Gorgeous area, I would come every day if I could.”
“Huge and beautiful park for both humans and dogs!! Friendly atmosphere!”
Stocksdale is great! Has a decent playground. Mountain bike trails a short paved trail loop, great frisbee golf course. They have a horseshoe area but I don't know if you can access it whenever I think you can byo horseshoes. The dog park is amazing!
Beautiful park with plenty of nice things. Great place for adults, children, and dogs! The paved trail is a really short loop but they have hiking trails too so that's a plus.
It's a great place, has something for everybody from a dog training course to mountain biking. I love hiking myself and the trails although designed for mountain biking are comfortable to hike. Lots of different plant, fungus and animal species here so keep an eye out for some cool stuff.
An excellent park with tons of walking trails, separate fenced-in off-leash areas for big and small dogs, tons of playground equipment, baseball fields, a comprehensive disc golf course, and mountain biking trails. Great place to take the family! Public restrooms are available.
