Confirmed from Tallman Meadow 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.

“It is a trailhead to not one, but TWO scenic and easy trails that are right in the Parker area!”

This little park is great for a short pit-stop on your commute to work or in your way home! It is a trailhead to not one, but TWO scenic and easy trails that are right in the Parker area! I'm not sure how long they are, but they are both in a very beautiful area!

★★★★★ — Nicholas , Sep 2020

This is a nice suburban park with baseball diamond, soccer field, and play equipment for the younger ones. There is adequate parking (except during the school year when it seems to be used by Legend HS students and parents), and walking/biking paths that connect with the Cherry Creek trail system.

★★★★☆ — Marty , Aug 2018

Love this park, it is easy to walk to and a great location to jump on the trails for biking. The gazebo and playground are in good condition as well as the playing fields. Also a nice location for kids birthday parties and private events if you reserve from the town.

★★★★★ — David , Dec 2019

Beautiful park with playground, athletic field, and the best little league baseball ballpark. Deer graze as walkers, bicyclist, and joggers enjoy the expansive trails.

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.

“In the winter when they take away the plastic porta potty, it makes bringing potty-training toddlers a little bit of a gamble at this park.”
