Confirmed from Suburban 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.
Recreational spot featuring baseball, basketball, tennis courts, a playground, and picnicking.
What runners say about Suburban Park
“Quiet place to play with friends, very close to Vairo and Tremont.”
Park is nice with a variety of equipment but parking is a little bit of a walk with little ones. Still worth trying out!
Great park for families - especially kids (toddlers to elementary). Paved path to playground ideal for tricycles and bicycles. Connects to the community bike path. Lots of beautiful shade trees. Basketball, tennis, pickle ball, and baseball as well as a perfect hill for sledding in winter.
Great park to walk and relax in. Gazebo areas to spend time in. Playgrounds and exercise equipment.
