Confirmed from Breidert Green 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.
Popular town park with a playground, a fountain, a gazebo and swings, plus a farmers market.
What runners say about Breidert Green Park
“The town of Frankfort is beautiful and the volunteers who hosted the event were gracious and fun.”
Welcoming and aethetically designed, this park area exuberates a sense of warmth and luxury at the same time. Plenty of benches to sit around, clean bathrooms, shops and something for everyone. Parking was not an issue. I walked towards the kids play area, pond and through the nature trail.
I'm a big admirer of the Frankfort area . Old plank trail and connecting walk ways are a great way to pass some time . We are like tourist , taking pics and identify plants and birds .
Lots of free public activities are always going on here. Farmers Market, concerts, walking and biking trails, etc. Bring the family.
