Confirmed from Woodland Creek Community 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.

“Plenty of parking spaces and a great place to gather for all ages and enjoy a nice day or evening.”

Sweet little park. Water access for throwing rocks and fishing.... No swimming access. Trails for walking or riding bikes/scooters/skateboards. Fun playground. Clean bathrooms. Geese! Would be a lovely spot for photos. Great covered picnic areas.

★★★★★ — Hannah , Oct 2022

We love this park. It's a little further to drive for a park since we don't live in Lacey anymore but we love the playground and the walking trails. The bathrooms are well maintained and there is a disk golf course as well.

★★★★★ — Jpro , Jul 2022

We were looking for walking trails around our neighborhood and found this park. First visit was very nice! Will come back tomorrow.

★★★★★ — Igor , May 2024

This is a wonderful large park in a beautiful setting. Lots of walking trails, a nice playground for kids, and a 14-hole disc golf course that I’d like to come back and try! Also home to city of Lacey facilities like the Senior Center, Community Center, and “White House.

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.
