Confirmed from Tawawa 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.
Sprawling park featuring playgrounds, picnic areas, baseball fields and soccer fields, plus trails.
What runners say about Tawawa Park
“This is the most beautiful park in the area.”
“Dogs love our walks, especially on the warm days when they can splash around in the water.”
Today I am taking some pics at Kastners Patch in Tawawa Park. Most people know Tawawa Park as just that, a park. However, this park is more than just a park. It's a huge park w/ little Parks throughout. And you get to see all these little Parks while cruising through the winding up hill, downhill roads.
I recently moved here from Carolina's East Coast and this is the best park I've seen in all my life! Love the trails. Only had one bad experience of a person following me on one of the paths; not sure how that could be prevented though.
Beautiful park!! Great playgrounds for kids, picnic tables and benches everywhere, lots of scattered port o pots, expansive green areas, trails, covered bridge, creeks, huge shady trees... it truly is wonderful!!
Beautiful Park. Wonderful walking trails .very eye-catching Covered Bridge. Amazing place for photographs, fishing , picnics, family reunions or just time alone..
