Confirmed from Englewood MetroPark North 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.
What runners say about Englewood MetroPark North Park
“Iits pretty clean but far from secluded and a bit overfished.”
Great place but quickly becoming popular and over fished. Old retired gravel pits. Watch out for the big angry beavers.
The ponds next to the parking lot can get pretty crowded on weekends but the back ponds and spots aren't bad, guess most people are too lazy to walk that far lol. Iits pretty clean but far from secluded and a bit overfished.
