Confirmed from Kokiwanee - ACRES Land Trust'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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 10 mentions

“We couldn't find the waterfall, but the trails were beautiful!”

We have visited twice so far and have really enjoyed the beauty of the trails and the nature that surrounds them. The trails are mostly unmarked once you start out on one so you just have to wander until you get the lay of the land.

★★★★★ — Amber , May 2021

Nice gem of a place near Lagro. Went in early spring and will be back! Trails maps are available online & while the trail is not marked well, it’s easy to explore and compact. Just wandering we were able to find the waterfall trail which basically is down by the river. Need a decent & recent rain to see them.

★★★★★ — Kitts , Jan 2023

I love the trails around this place. Some of them run parallel to the stream and it's so pretty. The kissing falls looks spectacular during winter.

★★★★★ — Sanjukta , Feb 2022

Beautiful scenery! I give it 4/5 stars because the trail signage definitely needs some attention. This is more of a “let’s-take-this-trail-and-see-where-we-end-up” situation. But they all seem tocombine at different points so you’ll get around one way or another.

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.

“My husband and I decided to find some new trails and found this one that had a waterfall only around an hour from Fort Wayne.”
