Confirmed from Stulsaft 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.

🐕 dog-walking favorite 3 mentions

“After a few minute walk, you get to a creek and the off-leash area filled with friendly dogs and friendly people.”

This park is very beautiful and large with seemingly endless trails. The playground is really great quality and the kids really love the water crayons. Almost every dog I saw leaving the park was soaking wet and happy, So lots of water fun here for kids and dogs alike.

★★★★★ — Freckles , Oct 2022

Nice mellow park. Multiple entrances, the main has the playground/bathroom. The lower is great start for dogs. A reasonable loop to walk your dog that’s within PA, close second to paths in EPA near bay lands

★★★★★ — Michael , Jun 2023

Neat park for trail walking with you dogs and kids. Off leash option is awesome & almost everyone we've met has been great, friendly and kind. This is such a breath of fresh air compared to most of rule-bloated, paved and padded common parks in our area. Thank you for such a relaxing outdoor trek!

★★★★★ — C , Sep 2023

Very unique park with dog off leashing area that features good foresty hiking paths, and more importantly streams! The dogs went nuts in this place, basically non stop zoomies since we stepped in.

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.
