Confirmed from Veteran's Memorial 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 offering a paved trail along a creek, benches, a playground, and basketball and hockey courts.

Nice and quiet. Sat and ate lunch peacefully and then shoot basketball a little. Nice walking trail and nice for a picnic too.
Beautiful. The new 1944 Huey Chopper is so amazing. Thank you for putting that up. Should get rest rooms there as many are peeing outside. Including kids and Sr. Citizens. Otherwise love the park. Nice streams. Cute walking bridges. Lots of benches and playgrounds. Nice relaxing place.
A great place to bring the family to if you are in the area. A good stop for kids to play, walking the dogs, and taking a nice stroll through the park. Very highly recommended for a quick stop to make the kids play or simply to unwind. Another benefit is that it is a hidden gem of the area. Enjoy!
Lovely, clean, little hide away park in Willow Grove and I didn't know it was even there. It has basketball court, hockey court and a nice cool trail to walk around through. It is a veteran's memorial park too. The park staff does a real good job keeping it clean. I will be returning.🙂
