Confirmed from Kinsey Road Mound'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.

“I actually like the park and the walking trail it's in a newer plat of homes yet very secluded like you are walking in the woods, pathway is cleared and easy to follow.”

A great spot for a quick hike and remember that humans have been in this region for thousands of years. The Adena culture was a Native American culture that existed from ~500 BC to ~100 AD. It's amazing that we are lucky enough to have a physical reminder of their civilization.

I actually like the park and the walking trail it's in a newer plat of homes yet very secluded like you are walking in the woods, pathway is cleared and easy to follow. I walked in late Feb so I didn't notice any bugs. Nice walkway near the creek something the kids always love.

★★★★★ — Connie , Feb 2023

Cute little path with the extra interest factor of the Indian mound. Very short, but does have a small area my kids enjoyed stopping to throw some rocks in the stream. Took us 15 minutes to walk without the water stop.

★★★★☆ — Kristin , Jan 2022

A gem destination. Mound is mind bending & breathtaking. A nice Four Season destination to see the changes. Paths are well maintained. Nice to walk both directions.

★★★★☆ — Andrew , Sep 2023
