Confirmed from Anderson Farm County Park'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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 4 mentions

🐕 dog-walking favorite 3 mentions

“My dog loves it too, always a new space to explore.”

Love this park! It has both wooded trails, prairie trails, and a long paved trail. We actually got married there a few years back. Perfect for a small, intimate ceremony. They also have rocks hidden for kids to find!

★★★★★ — Halie , Mar 2023

Lovely meandering hike through woods and prairie. Easy walk, gentle hills. Bike path was paved, trails in woods were mostly wood chips, prairie trails were mowed grass. Well maintained. Beautiful native plants in bloom, lots of birds and butterflies.

★★★★★ — Laura , Jun 2024

There is a paved bike trail running through the park. It appears that there will be a dog park area as they have a machine that can take your money. No fences currently. Some beautiful prairies are established and are in full bloom at this time q:) Fast forward 2yrs..fences and gates are up and there is a restroom.

★★★★☆ — Al , Nov 2025

Nice wooded trails and prairie area. Shorter trail distances than I prefer, but would be good for little kids.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

“Nice big bonfire provided warm relief from the cool evening temperatures, plus hot dogs, popcorn, and cider, all provided by the Friends of Anderson Farm park.”
