Confirmed from Wisner Tract 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 Wisner Tract Park
trails and paved paths for off leash fun times with so many friendly dogs.
Hit a home run finding this place only downfall didn't find it sooner. Great getaway in the city.
Best spot in city to bring dog for a good sniff and run. Can also eat mulberries and dew berries right off bush?
My go-to spot to bring my dog. Honestly, I think it’s one of the best kept secrets in the city. Love all the disc-bros (they have such a look; kinda handsome in an nerdy way, wearing shorts even when its cold, etc.
