Confirmed from John A. Wannemacher Nature Reserve'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 John A. Wannemacher Nature Reserve
“Beautiful little walking trail that is a great place to spot pollinators like butterflies!”
Nice level path through recovered farmland and some wetland. Grass and lumpy so tough for wheel chairs, but great for an easy nature walk.
There are 2 separate loops with a nice pond in the middle. Grassland scenery with grass walking surface. Can get wet around creek areas after heavy rain so make sure you wear waterproof shoes.
Beautiful little walking trail that is a great place to spot pollinators like butterflies!
Nice secluded park great for walking. Also named after one of the truly greatest individuals in our community.
