Confirmed from Upper Saucon Township Community 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.
Sizable park with play equipment and picnic facilities, plus an array of athletic facilities, and trails.
What runners say about Upper Saucon Township Community Park
“Went to bridal shower in the Pavillion, nice park with open restrooms and clean with toilet paper is always a great thing.”
“Very nice park with a beautiful tree lined entrance (especially when blooming in Spring) that leads to nice soccer and other sports fields.”
“Very clean and peaceful , my friend Robert really enjoyed it especially after 40 years he hasn't got on a swing”
A park for people who don’t like parks. It’s very safe. Because it is a rail trail, there are no surprises, good sight lines, and even grades. There is no winter maintenance, which might make it feel a little scary if not certain when winter starts. I think it means they do not remove snow or use ice melt.
This is one of my favorite parks for walking with my dog. It's well maintained, including the restroom. The walking path is mostly paved with easy access to the Saucon Rail Trail. There are two playground areas that are nice. The pavilion, with picnic tables & a grill, is nicely kept.
Beautiful park with baseball fields, soccer fields, and room to run and play. The playground was fun however seemed small and not a lot for toddler size children. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Only 1 bathroom for the size of the park.
Beautiful park! Very clean and family friendly. Close to a bike trail, which is also very nice and well kept.
