Confirmed from Green Township Bike and Walk Trail'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.
Popular park offering a paved trail for walking and running in peaceful surroundings.
What runners say about Green Township Bike and Walk Trail
“There are also several doggy clean up stations along way, but no toilets for humans.”
“It's not quite as picturesque as it once was, but the new development will add additional trail paths and shouldn't start looking really nice in a couple years.”
A hidden gem in Green Township. It is a 1 mile paved trail through wooden residential areas. The trail is entirely flat with the main trailhead parking off Hutchinson Road. There are handicap accessible parking spots, so those with wheelchairs or needing walkers would do fine here.
The trail has been reopened for a couple of months now from the Trailside Village development blockage that was put in place. It's not quite as picturesque as it once was, but the new development will add additional trail paths and shouldn't start looking really nice in a couple years.

Nice, fairly level paved walkway, about a mile out to the end from the parking lot off of Hutchinson Rd. Lots of places for my dog Sadie to enjoy sniffing and exploring. GREEN TOWNSHIP: YOU REALLY NEED TO CONSIDER PUTTING A PORTLET IN THE PARKING LOT ON HUTCHINSON!
