Confirmed from Fairfield Township 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.
Clean, family-friendly spot with playgrounds, picnic tables and a zipline.

Large newer playground, with music makers and a zipline. Swings. Toddler playhouse. Restrooms on site. Parking nearby. Walking paths. Great for dogs. Tennis Court and Baseball Field. Two shelters with Picnic tables. Beautiful Memorial for Local Veterans.
Our family has been to this park several times and we love it! It’s perfect for older kids and younger kids. The zip line is so much fun! There’s a walking trail, a basketball court 🏀, and a tennis court 🎾. There is a larger playground for the bigger kids and a smaller one for the little ones.
There is plenty to do for all ages. My grandkids love the zip line and the climbing opportunities along with paths to ride their bike or scooters. There is also ample covered areas with tables and restrooms as well.
