We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Kiekhaefer Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Scenic park with a sledding hill and disc golf, plus hiking, biking and horseback-riding trails.

Beautiful park just a short drive from fond du lac for hiking and disc golf.
One of fondy area's best "hidden gems!" Hiking through beautiful and in places and at times, enchanted looking woods, open prairies, and rolling hills. Something for everyone: hiking, biking, horseback riding, disc golf, and winter activities such as X-country skiing and more!

Enjoyable park with lots of shade for those hot days. Lots of walking trails and a frisbee disc golf course.
