Confirmed from Walnut 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.
Relaxed park featuring a playground, swings and a basketball court.
What runners say about Walnut Park
“The surrounding area is clean and in a very nice neighborhood.”
Great for walks at night and nice big open field for sports, also has a nice little basketball ball court, and dog friendly
Great concrete walkway surrounding the rolling grass hills and trees. Two separate play structures (one for the littles) both with swings, double-rim basketball hoop with chain net, and lots of grassy space for catch. No bathroom facilities noted, but I may have missed them.
