Confirmed from Trojan Timbers 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.
Park featuring a castle-themed playground, picnic areas, and a splash pad, plus a restroom.
What runners say about Trojan Timbers Park
“This park is clean and a great place for the little ones to gain their confidence and use their extraordinary imagination.”
“And the amount of shade blocks the sun and makes it feel nice!”
This is a wonderful park! There is a walking path around it that I was told is a half mile going around once. There is a good amount of sitting places for parents. Kids love the size of the place and the things to do there. We were there and busy for a good hour and a half without being ready to go.
Great park for kids and pokemon go players. :) large area for playing around, multiple swings sets, drinking fountain, smaller kids playing area gated differently from the bigger kids, walking path and covered picnic table areas.
This is one of our favorite parks to go to locally. There such a big area for the kids to play, one part fenced in so you're not having to worry about them wandering off. There's swings, slides, monkey bars, and so much more. Also trails for riding your bike or walking.
Well cared for wooden playsets. Paved paths for pedestrian usage. Numerous picnic tables and plenty of shade. Parking lot is well maintained and easy to access. The portable toilet was not there as of the 24th of March.
