Confirmed from Fell 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.
Neighborhood recreation space with a baseball field, walking trails, picnic shelters & playground.
What runners say about Fell Park
“Nice play structures, well maintained and they cut grass the day we were there but away from the playground as to be courteous to the families there.”
“From time to time we enjoy a quiet peaceful place to picnic, walk, visit with friends, and enjoy nature.”
Super easy trail because it's paved. But surprisingly hilly with lots of natural settings. Good 40 minute workout!
This is a nice little park, tucked away as a hidden gem, and a perfect spot to bring children! The paths are well maintained, and the nature is very well kept. There is also a small playground for children featuring slides and climbing structures.
From time to time we enjoy a quiet peaceful place to picnic, walk, visit with friends, and enjoy nature. Fell Park in the Urbandale neighborhood of Battle Creek provides all this and more. We feel safe and enjoy the swings and slides for the kids and friends time and again.
Nice play structures, well maintained and they cut grass the day we were there but away from the playground as to be courteous to the families there. Strolled around a large field thru tree lined paths, a nice spot to step away to nature without leaving the city.
