Confirmed from Trollwood 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.

“Amazing place for a peaceful walk under the willow trees”

Didn't take any pictures today. Nice quiet park in north fargo. Only one road in and one out so very uncrowded atmosphere. Plenty of playground equipment for the kids, walking and biking paths. Quiet spaces to sit and relax. Also disc golf if interested in that.

★★★★★ — Roberto , Jun 2023

It's a decent park. There is an 18 hole disc golf course on site as well as a playground. Most of the park is exactly like the rest of Fargo parks, low-lying areas prone to flooding. The Red River Trail is nearby and a fun, short trail.

★★★★☆ — Eric , Mar 2025

This is a great park to walk around if you are in the area. Nice walking paths near the river with lots of great views. I plan on coming here again but after sunset so I can see the ghost activities.

★★★★★ — Grace , Oct 2024

It's worth setting up a picnic there and a small walk around the park. Very home feeling. Thank you Fargo ND for creating this park. Multiple kids areas to play on.

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.
