Confirmed from Decatur 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 lake nice well taken care of playground the kids enjoyed feeding the ducks.”

Very nice park with a lake for fishing. Hiking trails, skate park, the historic Iron blue bridge that connects to the island. There is also an ice cream shoppe and bowling alley there too. Fun for the whole family!

★★★★★ — Richard , Mar 2026

Beautiful landscaping - grounds are well kept! Plenty to do for all ages. Lots of shade too!

★★★★★ — Taylor , Jul 2024

I went out there to feed the ducks and to just walk around and think. It’s always relaxing to me. The water was nasty and stunk but other than that I enjoy the ducks!

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.
