Confirmed from Wilmore 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 Wilmore Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (128 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 5 mentions

“From Let's Clown Around🎈She does beautiful face painting for all the kids and balloon animals along with treats and fun on Thursday nights!”

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“Completely fenced in, shaded areas with tables and benches.”

This is a fantastic park for big kids. If you have little ones, there is a smaller playground at this park. However, the smaller playground is not segregated, which allows the big kids to run rampant. It makes play time for your toddler or smaller children somewhat difficult when the park is crowded.

I just moved to the area and this park is a 3 minute walk from my house... it's just perfect for my 4 yr old daughter & 5 yr old son.

★★★★★ — Fallon , Oct 2019

Beautiful park and path and many monuments dedicated to people who served in the armed forces, a tank and a beautiful 9/11 monument.

★★★★★ — Elaine , Jul 2019

Completely fenced in, shaded areas with tables and benches. Bike path adjacent. Kids love it.

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.
