Confirmed from Lakhapani Preserve (formerly Lackey Road Greenspace)'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 Lakhapani Preserve (formerly Lackey Road Greenspace)
“There is a very big lake/pond at one end of the hiking loop which is stunning & makes you feel like you are in the magic forest with a lake of fairies.”
“There are two different “dead ends”; one is noted as going towards Sweet Apple Road, the other isn’t as well marked and goes right to a large stream.”
“Peaceful and good natur for hiking and walk around.”
“This hiking trail is great for all ages from small kids to elderly, not too hard at all, and not too easy, which makes it interesting enough to come back here again and again.”
Nice park. It is off the beaten path and the parking is not easy to locate. The path is quite hilly but easily visible the entire way. Be ready to cross several small streams using rocks and watch out for all the muddy locations. The trail has some great views.
I visited this green space in August of 23. It's a little off the beaten path, which is what makes it good. There are two entrances to the decent size parking lot. The first one that most people will encounter is almost impossible to get up both by the way it's angled and because it's so narrow.
Great afternoon hike for the family. A bit rigorous and hilly at times and a few creek crossings. Parking is ample, but difficult to locate
This is a fabulous very large park newly acquired by Milton, that goes alone the farms with cows on the meadows, various hills, creeks & wonderful wavy long loop of hiking pathway. It’s a mesmerizing beauty of nature that captivates you when you walk through it.
