Confirmed from Lyon Oaks County 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.

This park has some great flat trails. Trails are well maintained and dog friendly although they must be kept on leash at all times on the trails. Has nice picnic areas shelters. Two huge dog parks with separate area for small dogs and large dogs. My dog and I love the trail, great for trail running for beginners too.
Really nice park. Has long trails and there's even a heron rookery. It's a nice place to visit for a nature walk.
This park has good soccer fields, dog park, cricket pitch/nets and walk / bike trails . I have been to soccer fields most of the times. I just explored the BIKE 🚴 TRAIL and it is very decent . Good thing about the trails is these are FLAT TRAILS . It has about 3 miles loop. Good to go with little / young kids.
Lyon Oaks County Park in Wixom is one of my favorite of the Oakland County Parks system to walk. It is relatively quiet and the trail system is about 5 miles in length with some pretty bridges. There is a large court yard to picnic, a soccer area and a dog park.
