We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Sunrise Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Lake featuring trails, playground and picnic tables, plus swimming, fishing and kayaking.
What runners say about Sunrise Park
“*Tip* Clean up after yourself!”
“My kid and I had an amazing time playing on the play scape and enjoying the beautiful view because honestly it's just a beautiful place.”
“It’s so peaceful, not crowded, marked trails (wear appropriate shoes) , dog friendly.”
Posted for Suffield Residents Only! If you do not live in town you are not allowed in unless you're going to a function previously scheduled. Large park, wooded trails for hiking around a beautiful pristine pond. Swimming area for people and a separate area for dogs. Abundant fishing and activities for kids.
I love this park! It’s so peaceful, not crowded, marked trails (wear appropriate shoes) , dog friendly. Don’t tell anyone. Perfect leaf peeping foliage. I will definitely come back here !
We love coming here! Very peaceful park! My mom used to bring us here when we’re kids during summer vacation so we can swim and jump from the floating platform. Years later I came here with my two kids and looks like the beach part is not getting any cleaning. The water is dirty and I wouldn’t really get in it.
A wonderful place for a quite winter walk. I love to hear the ice cracking.
