Confirmed from Hemlock Ridge 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 Hemlock Ridge Park
Nice new park on some great land. The current trails go through some woods and leads to a nice overlook of the Grand River. Hopefully they leave a good chunk of the property untouched for us that like to explore off trail.
New Metropark! (The trails are still partially under construction, but looks like they are almost done). There are picnic tables within the trail at various points. Beautiful overlook spots down at the water.
Great park. Clean bathroom, nice pavilion. Two man loops, then a tail that kicks off the back (still in construction). That's where things get really cool. Wife and I went back there. It seems in the picture they are not connected, but they are. Really great time, can't wait till it is 100% done.
