Confirmed from Wallace 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.

“And an excellent aquatic options for all ages.”

Nice park with quality play equipment and a good trail. There is a volleyball court, a basketball court, and a tennis court, although I believe some of those are provided by the wellness center (they are still free to use).

★★★★★ — Nathan , Nov 2016

A very good Community Park for walking, jogging, skateboarding outside. And an excellent aquatic options for all ages. Offers virtually all kinds of classes and there's a nice area to work free weights or machines or whatever else you can imagine.

★★★★★ — David , Feb 2019

A great place to take both younger and older children! Swings, slides, sand crane, walking paths. The shelter is usually available. Restrooms. A skate park. I could go 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.

💡 Lit for night running

“Pickleball courts are nice but aren’t lighted.”
