It has two different sections but its called the same park name. One parking lot is off of Airport Highway and the other parking lot its off of Glendale Avenue. There within probably a mile of each other but you wouldnt know it unless you enter in your Navi or something I must say out of the whole city I think this place has the 2 most unique playgrounds. Its just very elaborate and one of them even has an elliptical, the one at the Glendale Avenue parking lot entrance, which is kind of cool so parents who want to lose some weight can just jump on it while their kids play 10 20 feet ahead of them. Nice walking trails and a good place to go for family or for single people

This metropark has many different natural areas including deep woods, flood plain, meadows and lots of natural flora and fauna. It is a good place to walk, hike, jog, or ride a bicycle. If there is snow cover, cross country skiing. It is therefore an excellent place to exercise and observe nature.

A very nice a clean park, lots of swings and slides for the kids. Alot of paved paths for rollerblades and dirt paths for runners, definitely one of the better parks to visit in the area. No kayaks tho as there is no pond at this metropark

Might seem small, but this park packs much into its borders. Every path is unique and there are many chances to explore nature and the swinging bridge.

What a beautiful place! I would highly recommend this place for any walker or parents. The playground is brand new and very large. The trails are long and pretty with paved roads and bridges. Many places that can be reserved for parties even a really huge gazebo in the woods. 5/5 for sure!

This is a nice friendly park I would say family oriented and it was clean when I was there I love the fact that the trash cans had lids that was a great help because the bees didnt swarm around the trash.

First time coming to this park. Absolutely loved how clean this park is! I was so impressed with the cleanliness of the restrooms. Best parts of this park for me were the map and swinging bridge.There was literally no chance of getting lost with all the proper signage located around the park. Truly a good nature walk :) brisk walk of about 7000 steps if you follow only the main loop from the airport entrance.Good security placed in the park as well. Which does help in feeling safe especially during this time of year. Better to travel in pairs/groups if youre enjoying the park in the late or early hours. There are certain sections which are extremely quiet.

Swan Creek Preserve Metro Park was an astonishing experience as I the Holy Ghost Passed through the Park on November to see this very Beautiful sight of the vivid red Moon and I must say that even the Pirit of God was over by this touching experience... Thanks to all Ohioans for allowing me to see this very Beautiful sight and I hope next time such an event happens that we can get more people to attend. I was blown away at how clean and motivated the park was on this occasion...

Swan Creek Metro park in its brief but brilliant fall colors.

Review №52

Swan Creek is a nice park with cool sights and deep paths. Glendale entrance has a nice big field and a canal thing to check out. I prefer the Glendale over the Airport entrance. We used to park a car in the Airport entrance and drive to the Glendaleside though so you can walk straight through the park and dont have to back track on your way back to the car. That makes this park pretty unique and I would suggest trying that sometime.

I love this park its not an extremely large park. But it is well maintained and there are some nice paths both to hike and bike most are between 1 to 1 1/2 miles, one includes a swinging bridge which can be fun. There are also picnic tables a shelter house and jungle gyms accessible on two different roads airport and Glendale with a hike/bike path connecting the two sides.

This is by far my favorite of all the metroparks. Several different trails including one specifically for bikes. Take a walk through the Big Woods or Meadow or go off the paved paths and try the Primitive Trail in the middle of the park.

We used the space for baby shower and it was incredibly clean and cute. Planning it was a breeze the air conditioning worked great and the whole building was a joy to have. If there is any room for improvement it would just beyond how loud the room is.
