Confirmed from Weed Park Maintenance Shop'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.
72-acre park with an aquatic center, lagoon, 10 lit tennis courts, rose gardens & playing fields.

Great place for walking. Wonderful experience. Aquatic Center when it's open.
Wonderful park. Take my grandkids there ages 2 & 4 & 8. The play area is great. Challenging but safe. The rose garden nearby is such a treat for all of us. There are many areas to explore throughout the park. They love the pond area too.
Great place to either drive thru it put on tennis shoes and go for a walk. Awesome scenic views if you like nature. 50 yrs ago this was a zoo with real monkeys, alligators, bears, peacocks etc..
