Confirmed from Green Estate 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.

Lovely paved walking paths. There were a number of very happy dogs & dog owners walking while we visited just ahead of a snow storm predicted to arrive later in the day.
It was beautiful outside, the park was beautiful as well. I didn't get to venture much of it at all because I had my daughter. I was just driving through on my way home in Wisconsin, thought I'd go see Mexico lol. I liked how open the park was so my daughter could run around and get some energy out.
Great park and paved walking trail. A beautiful place. City mowed the grassy prairie areas so now it will look like a wasteland this winter...not nice. One tiny small complaint is that the old bridge over the creek by the pond at the south end of the park is off limits.
This walking park is a blessing to our community. This is a historical location that was donated for public access. There are pleasant views and currently a story book children can read on signs as they walk.
