Confirmed from Jordan Creek Park - Lake Metroparks' 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.
Relaxed public park featuring hiking trails, zip lines and climbing walls.
What runners say about Jordan Creek Park - Lake Metroparks
An excellent place to get outside and do something fun with your kids. They have a bunch of climbing apparatuses. Including two climbing walls, 8+ slack lines, and a bunch of creative obstacles for you and your kids to play on. If that isn't your thing there are several trails to hike too.
It's one of the coolest places/playgrounds I've seen for kids. It's very hands-on and exercise. Kids really enjoyed all of the challenge courses, zip lines (not big),rock climbing walls, and stomps courses. if you're in town, defenatly stop by! They have trails through the woods and also bike trails.
Great park! Fun for all ages! The adventure area has a bunch of different things to do. Trails make it easy to get to the creek.
What a neat place for kids! Lots of fun adventures. They have climbing walks, a zip line and a canopy walk type of thing for little ones. They have a nice environmantal education center with educational programs. The older kids were doing archery. We had been hiking on the Greenway Corridor and just happened upon it.
