Confirmed from Batavia Township Sports Complex'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.

This is an awesome park! Well maintained, great walking/exercise trail.Also, this park allows your pets to be walked on the walking path.Plenty of room for picnics and sports.

★★★★★ — Sherry , Jul 2017

Took the wooded trail today and was pleased to find that they added a few obstacles! Nice little work out! These look temporary but they're sturdy, hopefully this means they'll be adding something permanent soon. My son and I love this park, especially all the excercise equipment along the walking path!

★★★★★ — Christi , Oct 2018

The cleans park 🏞 have been with basketball 🏀 tennis 🎾 walking 🚶 running 🏃 trail 👟 soccer ⚽ and kid's playground. Pets are welcome as long as you pick up after them and keep them on a leash. When attending most games they have a confession stand for snacks and non-acholic drinks. Very secure 🔐

★★★★★ — Daniel , Apr 2018

A hidden gem in Clermont County! The park is absolutely beautiful in the late afternoon — golden light filtering through tall trees, long shadows, and peaceful walking paths that make you forget you’re so close to town.

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.
