Confirmed from Creek Bend Farm: Wilson Nature Center'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

“The maple syrup and the homemade waffles were delicious and it was a beautiful sunny day .”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“During the week the park is quiet and peaceful.”

It's a very peaceful, and educational place. -bunny hopping around free in the main building, live animals in some small aquariums, stuffed birds, some touch and feel pelts etc... Maybe spend 30 mins in the building. There are some farm items and animals outside in warmer weather, goats, sheep, maybe chickens...

Came across the farm when out with the family and decided to check it out. Was a great decision for the facility is amazing. Beautiful scenery and the inside is amazing. The animals are all friendly and the trails are exciting. If you are in the area I highly recommend stopping by!! Great service too.

First visit here did not disappoint. Interesting, well maintained, well marked trails perfect for people and dogs. Dilly and Betty were so fun for the kids to interact with. A great stop, worth the detour for summer road construction.

★★★★★ — G , Jul 2020

This area is beautiful country! Has small animals out in fenced area. A nice sized pond where tgere is plenty of places to do beautiful pictures. This is where we chose to do my daughters 2025, summer graduation pictures. I highly suggest this place.

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.
