Confirmed from Indian Ledge 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.
Large park featuring a splash pad, playground and trails.
What runners say about Indian Ledge Park
“Beautiful park that is well kept.”
“Miles of fun, family-friendly trails.”
Great trails to walk and bike! Lots of people walking their dogs as well. Very clean! Saw people fishing in the stream, too. Cute little playground and splash pad. The only downside was that the bathrooms were locked on a weekday at noon.
Love this place so much for leisure bike riding and for hiking. It’s super nice and a haven away from the concrete and hustle and bustle of nine to five. I only wish there was more parking for non-residents.
I'm wondering about this park. How secluded are these trails? Could Fotis Dulos have parked there long enough to dig a hole and ditch his wife? This park is one of many in the area I'd like to explore further. Dulos was driving through this area with his wife's body in May of 2019.
Awesome park for the kids. It's a great combination of wood and metal. Large park that suits all ages. Spread out nicely. Actual nice bathrooms. There are walking trails and also a dog park. Only stayed for an hour but would recommend others to give it a try.

- SurfacePaved — asphalt or concrete. Fast and predictable, runnable year-round, and fine with a stroller
