Confirmed from Little Mill Creek South 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.
Park with zip lines and picnic tables, plus sports fields and walking paths.
What runners say about Little Mill Creek South Park
Great trails for running, walking or biking and the recently added playground is great for families with young children. The fields can be rented at very reasonable prices by going through the city of Lenexa website.
Wonderful park for all ages. Something for toddlers through older children. Tall slides, swings, baby swings, zip line, walking trails, clean, new equipment, modern, lots of climbing, merry go round, mulched
I grew up here and have always loved this park. I have walked biked and ran on those trails from the day they were completed. I still make the occasional trek down the trails for nostalgia.
Updated playground equipment and so much room for activities. Lots of trail around the park and through the woods to walk or run, and it's pet friendly.
