Confirmed from Young Woods 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.

Basketball courts, a bike path and playground in a compact park featuring slides and swings.

What runners say about Young Woods Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (67 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Very quiet park considering location. Huge old oak trees, nice playground equipment, and tons of squirrels running amuck.

★★★★★ — Nikki , Oct 2018
