Confirmed from Lincoln Brick 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 9 mentions

“The park features several miles of wooded trails that wind through beautiful forests, along the banks of the nearby river, and past fascinating natural features.”

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“The weather was perfect, although it’s always changing it was nice to have a good mix of shaded paths and open areas.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 6 mentions

“With a large, relatively quiet area and varied topography and ecology make this a real gem around Lansing.”

This is such a cute and historical little park in Grand Ledge with a quarry pond you can swim in. One thing to note is that you have to go down a dirt road to get there so pick an appropriate vehicle and it does have a cost to enter.

I am falling in love with this park!!! There is a fee to get in, but the fee isn't wasted as you can tell the people who work here truely love this park and it shows! Lots of natural trails around the remains of a brick manufacturing company(where the name originates).

★★★★★ — Benjamin , Oct 2022

A great place to get out of the city but dont have to drive a million miles away! The kids love it here of all ages! There's even a little history here with markers telling the story of old land Mark's! There's playgrounds for the little ones and a rope swing of the ledges for the brave hearted.

★★★★★ — Candice , Jul 2018

Great place for the family there’s a small playground and picnic area. Very serene and beautiful great for nature lovers. The trails are manageable for walking. The small lake offers a chance to fish or look for turtles and frogs.

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.
