Confirmed from Summitridge 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.

★★★★☆ — Ankit , Mar 2021

Love this park! Almost always clean. Great workout on the trails. Highly recommend wearing trail shoes, there's some loose rocks on the steep hills. Pretty nice views when the sun goes down too.

Amazing sunsets, trail is beautiful, I wouldn't take my dog. Last time their was a the biggest and only rattle snake I ever encountered. I love the flag pole, my dad was a veteran, I feel his spirit when I'm there.

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.
