Confirmed from Lombard Common'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.

Dog-friendly

Spacious park featuring baseball fields, basketball courts, soccer fields and a disc golf course.

“Perfect place to bring the dog for a walk or to come spend some family time together.”

Great park that can be nice and quiet and very pleasant feeling but other times it can be very crowded when parties or sport's are going on but you can usually find a place to relax.

★★★★☆ — Jeremy , Feb 2022

This is a spacious and bucolic city park with plenty of open space. Dotted with a couple kids play grounds, a frisbee golf course and a contemplative memorial garden with flags representing all branches of the armed services nestled among the trees, walking paths, and picnic areas, all adjacent to a public water park.

★★★★★ — Mike , Mar 2020

I like to come here to play the disc golf course, but they're are a lot of different things to do here. Great Waterpark on the premises as well as a couple different parks, gazebos, tennis courts, basketball courts, walking paths, huge fields and more.

★★★★★ — Mike , Oct 2019

Love the disc golf course. Great 9 hole with a bonus 10th hole makes for a good casual alternative to Madison Meadow's 18 hole down the street. Common's also has a great path through it for biking/walking, and the water park is wonderful in the summer.

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.
