Very nice, quiet, calm scenery. Paved sectuon of the ice age trail is popular but not overwhelmingly so and there are some short offroad trails as well. Plenty of benches for those that need to rest too.

Nice, paved path through a wooded area. There are some trails off the pavement that could be fun.

This is a really neat place for hiking. Tons of winding trails and a few good hills to. Very well hidden and preserved for how close to houses it is.

Nice prairie and hillside getaway in town. New asphalt bike/walking path, many side trails. Not cleared of snow in winter, could be a good snowshoeing path after a few good snowfalls.

Im gone for two months and the locals get it through their head to build a road. Soon pedestrians will plague the woods with their presence, and their is nothing that can be done to stop it. Resignation is all that is left.

Looks like it will be a nice place when they finish work around it. Trails were not marked and prairie trails had not been cut for some time. Hopefully things will change.

To clarify the 1-star review, the best place to park is on the northbound lane of wright road (the westernmost side of the park from the aerial view.) The empty space on the right of the bike lane is a legal parking space. A trail that leads to the main loop is located past the sidewalk, with a small sign. This is a public park with little signage as it was donated to the city under terms limiting its development. It is a nice forest that highlights a unique terminal morraine, or more plainly, a ridge from where the glacier stopped. The trail system is maintained by users who volunteer their own time to help keep trails clear. Great for hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, or nature watching.

The trail through the woods is fantastic but not paved yet.

A hidden gem, undeveloped and as nature intended. A treasure worth preserving in its native state.

Great variety of different hiking terrains, like coniferous forests and more marshy parts. The windmill in the center of the park adds some mystique to the forest. It has a ladder that should certainly be removed, however, because it is well past its prime and should not be climbed on.

This park has no Public Access. Im sure it is a nice park but the two times I tried to find it we could not find parking because we did not feel comfortable parking in front of somebodys house who we dont even know. In order to access the park it seemed we had to go into other peoples yards to access it. We asked a local resident if there was public access to this park and his response was what park..lol. We did see a small trail leading into the area off a sidewalk, off of Write Rd, but again, no public parking. It seems as if this is a private residential park. This should be clarified if this is, or not the scenario.
