Confirmed from Tangerine Sky Community 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.

Nice set hoops. Sunsets are gorgeous. Nice park with Zipline. Dog park for the pups to run around.

★★★★★ — Adam , Oct 2022

We really enjoyed walking our dogs here. There’s a sizable walking trail surrounding the park which we walked a few times with the pups at sunset. The dog park was nice as well but we preferred just walking around. Views are gorgeous. Recommend for adults, kiddos and dogs.

★★★★★ — Monica , Mar 2022

Th kids loved this place. It'll filled with clean and working playgrounds. Great space to run and picnic.

★★★★★ — Travis , Mar 2023

Great new park for the nearby neighborhoods! Love the large grass area for running around. Yay for no artificial turf! Playground is fun with options for kids of all ages. For the people complaining about the lack of shade, there is a large covered picnic table area near the playground for a brief respite from the sun.

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.
