Confirmed from Laddie Lake Park'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 Laddie Lake Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (98 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Nice neighborhood park with walking trails through nature. It brings to mind memories of my youth, playing in the woods. I hope that this area benefits children as much as my playing in the woods benefited me. There's also a view of the lake, and some gentle walking trails

★★★★★ — Jrob , Sep 2018

Odd little park. Access from North, and East by trail with parking lot in the West. Maps navigated me to what looks like a driveway for an apartment but is actually a few hundred foot long street. Technically street parking is available in the North, but not much (be considerate of residents).

★★★★☆ — Derek , Jul 2019

A pleasant and friendly park. I always enjoy my time spent here, whether I'm relaxing after a long busy day at work or walking along the trails on a bright sunny day.

★★★★★ — Pantson , Oct 2021

Vary small not much to do. Short walk and then look at the lake done! 15 minutes maybe 20 if you stare at the lake longer!!

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.
