Confirmed from Westinghouse 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.

“Good for dog-walking, picnicking, strolling.”

We live in walking distant and are at Westinghouse Park as least once a week with our 18-month old daughter. She loves running around in the grassy spaces, as well as the playground.

★★★★★ — Neville , Sep 2019

This is a great park to go to, it's small but nice. There isn't much noise in the park and it is easy to enjoy a nice walk in that park. One trail is fading away but otherwise a great park. I would recommend for a quick walk because it is small and not very large.

★★★★★ — Gabriel , Jun 2019

A municipal park with fine old trees, a nice playground, and a center for community meetings. Some interesting history here, too. Good for dog-walking, picnicking, strolling.

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.

🐕 Dog-friendly 5 mentions

“But, generally during the day in nice weather, there's at least a few people using it at any given times to play with their kids or walk dogs.”

“There isn't any restroom facility here, looks like the old one has been boared up for years.”
