Confirmed from Hidden Lake 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.
Paved trail and playground for kids of all ages in a park with a lake.
What runners say about Hidden Lake Park
“Really beautiful views of the lake but no access to the shore, due to private property surrounding the lake”
A beautiful, hidden walking path and playground with easy parking. I only wish there was a restroom.
A nice little gem. Great place to walk & just like it says, the lake is really hidden! Not a place to swim and it would take a little work to get to the lake to fish it.
Hidden Lake, Hidden Gem, The trail goes all the way to the interaction of W center st and 131 n st
A nice secluded park with paved paths and a neat viewing spot for the lake
