Confirmed from Zorinsky Lake 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.
Lake park featuring fishing, a playground, athletic fields, a picnic area, shelters & more.

Beautiful area, with lots of walking paths. People were bike riding, hiking, running and just strolling through the area. There's also a large slide 🛝 next door. Lots of different trees, shrubs, flowers,etc. We saw several different birds in the area too. The lake is beautiful and peaceful.
Beautiful park with a lot to offer! A good few miles of trails to hike, bike, and everything non-motorized in between. There's sport fields, multiple playgrounds, not to mention plenty of fishing spots and room to kayak and the like. Can't wait to go back!
