Confirmed from Maple Avenue Nature 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.
Neighborhood green space with a picnic shelter, playground & gazebo, plus trails & a fishing pond.
What runners say about Maple Avenue Nature Park
“Very beautiful nature walk, kids have a play area and it looks like a brand new BMX kids Trail which is really neat.”
Nice little park. Fishing pond with a wide cement walking path all the way around the pond. Even a nice playground and picnic shelters.
This park is so beautiful. On the smaller side, but has so much. Play area for kids, nice walk around the pond. Just a lovely place to watch the 2024 solar eclipse
Very beautiful nature walk, kids have a play area and it looks like a brand new BMX kids Trail which is really neat. We walked around the little Lake took some pictures lots of BlackBerry bushes around the trails. Great place to walk. Not busy at all.
Really nice are for walking, running, walking the dog, biking, fishing, kayaking, etc... Small lake, playground area, gazebo, dock, boat ramp, plenty of seating, a little mountain bike course, really nicely done.
