Confirmed from Island View 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.
Park for walking and running trails featuring outdoor exercise gear and views of the Maumee River.
What runners say about Island View Park
“No matter the weather this always a beautiful area to either have a leisurely stroll, exercise or take your dog for a walk (don't forget your poo bags).”
“Nice park that has a great trail for running or taking your dog on a walk.”
Very peaceful - felt safe - deer and birds everywhere with plaques giving info scattered through with info on birds- has workout machines along path PERFECT LUNCH SPOT to get in some steps!
This is a great park in the middle of suburbia. It's a mile long with some nice hills. Go either early or later and will see deer. There is a section where you can see the river too. Very nice and also kid friendly!
Awesome trail to do some chakra clearing walks or runs. Filling in the short cuts with some gravel would be epic! My boxer loves trying to sprint the mile here too so he has fun lol. :)
So peaceful and gorgeous path. I enjoyed the excercise equipment for resistance training as well.
