Confirmed from Wasserman 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 Wasserman Park
“We also took the kids down to the playground which they loved, very clean and fun.”
It's a great park. Access to Naticook lake, miles of trails and a dog park to mention a few. Merrimack Parks and Rec does a great job and good some awesome community events at the park.
Nice area to bring your dogs and kids. I wish there were trails to walk.
Nice park. Play ground for the kids a Beach for Merrimack residents a dog park for the kids and hiking trails for everyone. I highly recommend it if you live in town if you don't well hopefully you know somebody that lives here. They added a great fishing dock kids love it thank you very much town of Merrimack.
My family's and I's visit was amazing. The new area for swimmer's was spacious and clean. It also had a separate area for fishing and that was nice and clean as well. Can not express to you all how impressed and pleased to see how clean the park was.
