Nice walking trail. Could have used more historical interaction. I tried to find the interactive things listed on some sites regarding the battlefield, but I couldnt find them. Very nice park.

Visitor Center was closed unfortunately due to the pandemic. Bathrooms are still available. Historical plaques explained what happened here in the late 1700s and the significance of the Battle of Fallen Timbers. The parking lot was larger than I expected and there were 10 cars in the lot at 930 am. Several were walking the trails or bicycling on the Metropark trails. I wish the signage was better on the trails so out of towners could figure out where they were! Three stars because Visitor Center was closed.

Nice historical site with a short walking trail with great signage. Road signs to the battlefield are very small, making site hard to find.

This is a paved/stone, wooded/open walking trail which loops 1.5 miles. If you go in autumn, you can enjoy the forest turned yellow. Beautiful! Some pretty overlooks and the history is interesting.

Battle site of General Waynes in 1794. So rich in history and a peaceful place to walk or run.

Went to a reunion in the park/park building (which was air conditioned--thank goodness) This worked out great! The food could be kept warm, or cold as needed and no bugs in it. Everyone was able to sit at tables and visit or some went outside, sat, or walked the trail. This was a perfect location!

Bathroom always look clean and well taken care of. Baseball fields are the best. The outfield is well manicured and is smooth not a hole to be found . Very safe for children of all ages.

Take a walk through a historical battlefield and read about the participants. There are many plaques full of information along the path. There are open areas that may require sun screen on sunny and hot days. There are public restrooms available near the parking lot, which is free. Walking is easy on a well maintained path.The battlefield is not the easiest place to find. I recommend searching Google Maps.

My husband & I enjoy this park because the trail is so nicely marked, and the information tags tell what people need to know about the Battle of Fallen Timbers. The trail is a leisurely 1.5 miles and really puts the walker at ease.

Battlefield Park is a small but nicely maintained Metropark with a stoned running path, nice bathroom facility, and bike pump/tool station. It is connected to other parks by the Wabash-Cannonball trail.

1.5 mile hike on flat smooth gravel path. About 1/2 shaded and half open. Signage gave good history.Visitors Center said closed for private event so unsure what information was inside. Restrooms available from outside the Visitors Center.

Finally, visited this site thats been right here on our door step (so to speak) for a number of years now.We were educated on facts about The Fallen Timbers Battlefield that we were totally unaware of and the rich history of N.W. Ohio.This is a site we would highly recommend for our local and out-of- towm visitors as a must see on their schedule.

Very nice and quiet atmosphere. I like that you can use an app to hear about the different location. Nice mile and a half Loop. Great for bicyclists to with a bicycle station on-site clean restrooms.

Interesting place with a fascinating history. The trails in and around the park are quite nice; and, I liked the historical markers placed along the trail describing the events that took place here. The view of the Maumee River valley is wonderful. It would be nice though if they had an actual visitors center to more fully explain and interpret the events that took place here, and their importance in US history.

Review №52

I found out when I stopped at this wasnt actually the Battleground. When you read the signs that shows that the battlefield was really underneath where they built the freeway but still you get the feeling of what it was like being there with all the trees that have fallen down and all the areas to hide in a battle back then

Review №53

Nice walking trail through both fields and forest, with a rentable space indoors as well. The stamp for your passport book is at the beginning of the trail by the sign.

Pretty statue memorializing Battle of Fallen Timbers. Overlooks Maumee River. Little park surrounding the memorial serves as terminus of the Cannonball Trail, though the Sidecut Metroparks trail system also ends here.
