Confirmed from Jeffrey 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.

Wooded 40-acre parkland with a community pool, tennis courts, playground & walking paths.

“Beautiful,Clean,Great Time on a Solo Date or with others, only downfall is having to book/schedule to go inside the mansion now 🤷🏻”

Jeffrey Park is a great place to go for a walk and enjoy the nature. My husband and I go here frequently for our Pokémon Go walks since there are plenty of gyms and Poké stops along the paths! However, just beware, this park does not allow dogs on the premises.

★★★★★ — Lindsey , Dec 2020

Located on the east side of Alum Creek, Jeffrey Park is an amazing park in Bexley. Jeffrey Mansion is beautiful but Jeffrey Park is also impressive. The trails are very well maintained and there are plenty of good views of Alum Creek.

★★★★★ — Rjd , Jul 2022

A lovely place for a walk around. It’s nestled in a gorgeous neighborhood and the park is impeccably manicured. A must see!

★★★★★ — Kristen , Jul 2022

Great place for littles! Playground perfect for under 5 year olds. Nice walking paths through wooded area and spotted some wildlife.

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.
