Confirmed from Valencia 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.
What runners say about Valencia Park
“Overall impression of the park was that it was well-maintained.”
“But lovely shade trees, a labyrinth to walk, play equipment, walking trails!”
It's dope but make sure you check in with the boys Gio and Lior before hooping cause they run those courts. Not for beginners, only high comp
Overall impression of the park was that it was well-maintained. The grass was mowed very neatly and clean, compared to other parks nearby. There are plenty of benches scattered around to for resting, and it has a large ramada with a few picnic tables right by the playground.
Love this little gem of a park!! It could be great, but people leave there dogs off the leash to run, and at times not pick up the poop. But lovely shade trees, a labyrinth to walk, play equipment, walking trails!! Thank you chandler city. Please replace some of the shrubs that burned in the heat!!
Pretty big park, with shaded sitting areas and shaded play park. A bbq spot, tons of space to play in the grass, or to just take a walk.
