Nice small park for a quick hike. Creek runs through the park. Nice little gem, most people dont even know its there.

Nice for walking and biking. There is quite a lot of over that provides shade and a cool place to exercise when it is hot outside.

Beautiful park. Great for walks, very shady. Wonderful for getting pictures taken or taking scenic pictures

What a pretty little park! Ive driven by many times, but my spouse and I stopped in to have a picnic lunch and walkabout, and it was lovely.

By far my favorite park in Swansea. The nature trails seem to go on forever through a tranquil forest. Even though its in town when youre on these trails, I promise you you will not hear city life.

Great walking trails! Woodsy

Love to ride my bike on the trails and end up here. Beautiful park

Have sooo many good memories, from riding my bike on the trail ten years ago to chilling with my friends. 10/10 good place to take the kids

Great Walking trail. Seeing the turtles all lined up sunbathing on a log in the water was a cute sight.

Great place to walk dogs on a leash lots of woods and wildlife.

Very nice trails. Enjoying some time with the family. Getting some much needed exercise.

I love this park! It is more like a nature trail but it is one of our favorites. I love to walk my dog with some friends enjoying the quiet walk. My favorite thing about the trail is that it is easy to forget you are right next to a major road in the city. It is just far enough away that it is quiet and you can hear the animals in the woods with no sounds of traffic. There is a train you can hear on occasion.

Its a great little trail that has some fantastic sights to offer

Great park to take dogs or for a day of fishing

Perfect place to go for a quick walk.

Fishing is not the best because theyre mainly babies. I have been fishing here multiple times and have only caught babies. There is a otter, which is cute.

Flat, wood chips and dirt path. A pleasant mile hike

Bring bug spray if mosquitos love you.

Clean, not really crowded nice short trails

Plenty of random bushwacked trails off the main gravel walking path and paved bike trail.

This is a nice little park with a small path through some woods and a nice little Creek to follow. Its no Forest but Im happy we have a little something to escape to so close to home

Nice walk in the woods, feels separated from the surrounding neighbourhoods

It has the best trails! They are not too long or too short. It has benches along the way and a bunch of bridges to ride your bike across or walk it;

Cute, a nice nature walk, dogs love it!

Great place to walk tbe dogs

Beautiful park. Nice trail along a creek.

Walk through the woods and see if you can sneak up on the turtles sunbathing on the logs in the pond. All of the trails have been freshly graveled. Really just a nice little park.

Nice little walking/biking trails.

Was here maybe 5 minutes. Then some guy on a scooter comes along and started to follow us on the trail while speaking about the lake or pond in the distance. He then kept walking more and more toward us until we ignored him and left.

Remind me to carry bug spray so I dont get eaten up.

Nice place to walk your dog, nice river.

My favorite park in the whole area!! Surprisingly secluded. Its like a hidden world!! An extensive trail winds through the woods, along the creek, over cool foot bridges and includes spots to rest and reflect. Only a visit will do this park justice!

Centennial Park is a great place to visit and walk the woods. The park committee and a host of volunteers have cleaned up a good part of the park and added some very nice amenities. You should go to the Park and enjoy it.

Great place to walk and great place to fish

Nature walks, bike trail, good park for exercise, fishing, nice outdoor scenery for photography, Nice creek to play in, n lil wood tree park for kids.

Nice trail to take a quick walk. Good bit of nature inside Swansea. Occasionally there are weirdos hanging out at the park. And during the summer there are a LOT of stinging nettles and poison ivy. But seeing all of the turtles and wild violets makes up for it. I come here to walk and run.

This is my park. Dont go here. The less people the better!Also, I am very disappointed in how they put gravel on the trail. Ruins the experience and all you hear is rocks crunching under your feet.

Lots of snakes

I rode my bike here the other day in search of a new bike trail specifically. They have nature trails or paved trails. The nature trail is very calming and there are many different paths you can take, the only downside is it’s more for hikers in some parts because of low trees and drop offs.

Nice trail

Went to this park during a 2hr break between classes at SWIC. It has a few paths to walk on, along with some picnic tables, but I didnt see any garbage cans. Not too much space if youd want to play frisbee or something, but its a decent place to go.

This park, with its bridge over Richland Creek is as much a part of my childhood, 50 years ago, as Santa Claus. Then it was called Brewery Pond. Its storied past is the stuff of legend. Now it is an innocent, lovely walking path where I have walked with my wife, and with my daughter when she was 12, twenty years ago.

Love walking here so peaceful

Great park. Lots of trail types to choose from and plenty of interesting wildlife. There’s a ton of quality and well-marked bike trails too! Some of the trails run along the Metrolink so getting back home is easy. They don’t show up on google maps but there’s streams and lakes in the area and park. Shade. Lots of shade. There was a heat warning today but the shade and a breeze made it nice.I look forward to visiting again! There’s a restroom with pluming, a fountain, and bike rack.

Your choice between paved trail, gravel trail, and nature trails. Deer trails will take you into the woods a bit more.

THE RULE OF THIS PARK:DO 1 THING; TO MAKE IT BETTER WHILE YOUR THERE

Beautiful place to take the family for a nice walk and even the dog

Nice clean park thats great for walking dogs.

Great place to walk your dog

Great park take a walk and fine it peaceful, sometime to help think and look at what man and god has created together.

No enforcement of rules. Dog poo and trash everywhere. People still ride motorcycles through despite the signs.

Very quaint

I moved to the Metroeast area in the summer and, as I have an energetic pup with a open yard, Im always on the hunt for good walking trails. Ive been a bit disappointed as Ive been park hopping as there are some parks in the Belleville area that either have uncompleted walking trails or just really short ones. This park is a gem for this area especially during the fall. There is a nature and bike trails--both about a mile long(rounding up). The nature trail borders a creek and is mostly enclosed by woods. I was able to kill a hour (multiple laps) with my dog and theres plenty of smells and scenery to keep him interested. Im not really a runner, but this is a great trail for runners too.

Beautiful area. We did see a herd of deer. During our walk.

Nice walking park. I do wish they had more benches further down trails.

I love the trails

Nice 1.5 mile walk

Hidden gem

Nice place. Just dont use the bathroom. Smells like they mop the floors with sewage.

Great clean place to walk your dog

Took engagement pictures here. Its the perfect nature scene background.

Nice walking path through nature

Took a picture of turtles sunning on a rock

This is a terrific park for a short hike or for small children . The boy scouts have created great markers with exercise suggestions and wildlife information.

I love these trails!

Nice place for a short walk

Beautiful scenery

Very nice park, surprising to find it in such a miserable and depressing area town. A good a escape from the drabness of IL.

Great little trail right in town. Perfect for a dog walk or to let the kids burn off a little energy and take a picnic.

Favorite park to go to. Havent had experience with the fishing lake but eager to try it out. If your looking for a hike than this is the place to go.

This is a great albeit small scenic park (as evidenced by the amount of photographers there any given day), geared towards walkers, dog walkers and runners.While theres no playground equipment its a lovely place for family time with a small one mile hike.

Its a nice quiet park with a playground for kids its got a nice Lake you can watch the birds and feed the geese its a nice place to eat your lunch everyday

Great place for a nice peaceful walk .

Love this trail

Great trails through the woods. Theyre rather eerie at night, but thats trespassing and you should totally never do that. Right.

Great little park well maintained and beautiful.

Nature walks nice for the pets, kids family time. Work outs or picnic.

I like this park.I wish I had more time to visit it.

Great park, loads of trails. Clean

It is divided into a walking trail or a short hiking trail. They are both mostly shaded. It also connects to the Metro Link trail.

Beautiful walking trails at this amazing park

Very quiet and peaceful

This park is so gorgeous!! I absolutely love the views, and enjoy using the trail!

Wooded loop trail in the middle of Swansea, connects to the metro bike trail, best dog walk space around.

Awesome place

Nice place to enjoy a leisurely stroll

Good park with nice walking trails and fishing lakes.

This place is super chill. You can grill salmon by the river, and sing songs to the squirrels.

Very peaceful

Love it!! Connects me with nature

Beautiful trail

A lot of mosquitoes.

Nice walking, with shaded walking trail, and nice place to get photos

Great

Beautiful quiet park.

Beautiful, clean, and nice waking trails.

Lovely.

Nice 35 minute walk

Did not find any moral mushrooms

Great trail running
