Confirmed from Three Springs 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.

★★★★☆ — Queen , Jul 2025

Great Day at the park! Great park for all ages of children! Six different slides, climbing circle, and baseball fields. They even have a family swing for you to settle down with your little ones. There is a great walking path that surrounds the baseball field and tennis courts as well.

★★★★☆ — Mahlon , Jan 2023

Nice easy walking trails, soccer fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, trails around pond, lots of greenery, dogs allowed, picnic tables, clean safe kids climbing structures and mens/woman's bathroom with plumbing.

★★★★★ — Nikky , Sep 2024

Love this park. There are ball fields, playground equipment and a nice paved walking trail that is set on a lake and overlooks a golf course. There are places to stop and enjoy the view on benches and there are restrooms at the parking lot area.

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.

“Unfortunately the lake is quite far away from the parking lot oddly the Google maps tries to take you down someone's private driveway to get to the lake which was not cool”
