Confirmed from Tumlin 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.
Urban park for the public with lawns as well as a large playground & sports fields.
What runners say about Tumlin Park
“The park itself is nice and well maintained with a beautiful walking trail, but boy oh boy is the playground packed every time we go.”

Tumlin Park is a wonderful park that has a lot to offer from tennis courts, to a paved walking trail, two jungle gyms, multiple picnic areas, and great restrooms! I would highly recommend for those looking to get some exercise and sunshine either for themselves or their families.
There was a kid walking a ferret named, Dexter. The sun was way too bright but that's nature for you - it's metal. Next time I'll bring sunglasses or my hat but if the weather says overcast, I'll just wear my reading glasses and a carton of milk.
I had a very nice walk here. The park is nice with lots of seating areas & large swings. I don't have a little one anymore but the playground looked fun & had lots of options. The park is well maintained & felt safe. I wish I knew about this place years ago.
It's a nice place to visit to relax your mind and enjoy the outdoors, there's a tennis court, a play area for children, a walking track and more, I was there for only about 45 minutes for a photoshoot and did not take much time to explore.
