We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Thompson Road 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.

“Amazing and well kept hiking paths, anywhere from just open, wide grass ways, to forest trails.”

Wonderful place to walk your dog on the trails. Very nice when it is hot out because it is shaded.
