Confirmed from Summer Creek Loop Trail'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.
What runners say about Summer Creek Loop Trail
Summer Creek Loop Trail is a great trail that winds around and through Summerlake City Park. The loop is a nice way to see the park and all of its various areas. Including seeing some wildlife along the way! There are also plenty of other paths that connect into the loop to make for a fun way to explore.
This place is one of our favorite parks recently. There are two playgrounds, a sand pool for kids, long trail around the lake, dog park, covered area for parties and organizations.
Very nice park, pretty bridges, an abundance of both paved biking paths and trails through wooded areas and by the lake itself. Best to go in the summer, lots of wildlife such as, ducks, caterpillars, bees, and butterflies. Would recommend for families and friends looking for easy walk and picnic
Pleasent place to walk and enjoy wildlife or just sit on a bench and people watch.
