Confirmed from Westfall 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.

ScenicDog-friendly

Park with a baseball field and trails, plus space for dogs to roam.

“Remember to clean up after your dogs because they still play ball here on occasion!”

Took my dog here for the first time yesterday. We both loved it. Very clean, with awesome views. Your pet can run n play with no worries. There's a baseball field and plenty of room to sit, relax and enjoy a good game.

★★★★★ — Tita , Jun 2023

A beautiful spot to walk the dogs. Completely fenced in so they can run a bit free. Remember to clean up after your dogs because they still play ball here on occasion!

★★★★★ — Daniel , Jun 2019

This are is 98% fenced in. Large field with plenty of grass for dogs to run in. There are 2 openings on either side of the field entry that dogs can escape from. Otherwise plenty of space, green grass, no holes in the fence.

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.
