Confirmed from Heritage Hills 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 Heritage Hills Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (20 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

🌾 quiet & peaceful 4 mentions

“A pleasant, quiet outdoor retreat.”

A pleasant, quiet outdoor retreat...essentially a large, sensory, forested, pollinator prairie garden. Features approx. 1.5 mi. of trails, one paved smaller loop and one gravel, larger loop. An outhouse and small parking lot are available, entrance is free. A variety of birds and birdhouses throughout.

★★★★★ — Thomas , Sep 2024

Secluded park on the Wild Rice River confluence into the Red River. Lots of walking to do. Road could use some love.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
