Confirmed from Lime Kiln 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 Lime Kiln Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (60 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Absolutely splendid experience. The river was an absolute highlight. Great paved trail as well as options for adventuring on dirt paths. A random visit that turned out to be exceptional.

★★★★★ — David , Jul 2022

Great place to walk and see the beauty of God's creation in Menomonee Falls!

★★★★★ — Kevin , Dec 2020

This is probably one of my favorite parks in the area. There are a few spots to veer off of the walking path where you are close to the river. It's a beautiful place for a mini hike, or in my case shoot some senior photos.

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.
