Confirmed from Wentz Run 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.

“It’s a place where residents of all ages come to play, relax, and enjoy events throughout the year.”

This park is a great local spot. There are nice paved walking paths and a hiking trail in the woods. The hiking trail had been built out over the last few years and it's a beautiful walk. I rate the trail a 1 as it's flat and easy.

Very nice park in Blue Bell. Several large athletic fields surrounded by paved walking trails. There are 2 entries into the wooded paths which are very shady and scenic. A stocked fishing pond is within the large complex. Bathrooms are available. Nice place to spend the day.

Awesome baseball fields! My grandson recently played in a tournament at Wentz Run Park and it was a wonderful experience. The park is very clean and well maintained. It has playground equipment, tennis courts, basketball courts and walking trails. There are well maintained public bathrooms and a snack stand.

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.
