Confirmed from 6101 Oak Forest Ave Forest Preserve'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.
What runners say about 6101 Oak Forest Ave Forest Preserve
“This new Forest Preserve trail is beautiful.”
Hidden gem of a park. Some of the best trails around. There's a mix of both sunny prairie and shaded forest to choose from here. I hope they maintain them as dirt trails as we've got enough paved paths around.
This new Forest Preserve trail is beautiful. It is very quiet and scenic. There are bare Bones amenities (just a couple of picnic tables and some garbage cans), but the place is simple and calm.
Beautiful place for me and my dog ! Hidden gem ! All we ask is PLEASE LEASH YOUR DOGS ! place is big enough for all to enjoy at once , but we had to leave a couple times after pulling in because people were in lot with their dogs running off leash around their vehicle and we watched them go onto the trail unleashed .
