Confirmed from Mt Tabor 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.
Tennis courts, recreation center & mountain biking trails featured at preserve with small lake.
What runners say about Mt Tabor Park
“Peaceful trails and well maintained.”
“This park has a beautiful 9/11 memorial called Liberty Park.”
Go directly to the right when you enter to go to the trails and pond. This park has a beautiful 9/11 memorial called Liberty Park. There are huge koi in the pond, and ducks and turtles as we'll. There are many unmarked trails. Don't bother with the map- it's useless.
Beautiful trails! The park is well maintained. Plenty of shade from the tall trees.
Love day hiking here. Peaceful trails and well maintained. A little gem in Paulding County. Never too many people and although the trail system is advertised as biking and hiking I rarely encounter mountain bikers. In all there are 7.5 miles of trails with the Blue Trail or “Pine Pong” Trail being the primary trail.
I really enjoyed my visit to this park! I walked the blue trail, and it was nothing short of magical! ✨ I loved all of the trees and rocks and the creek that runs through it! 🥰
Trail conditions & character
“Great trails for hiking with the family and dogs, especially if you are looking for a less busy trail system.”
“Not much in the way of views but certainly peaceful and not overly strenuous.”
“The only complaint I had was that the trail markers were few and far between making some of the different trail crossing confusing.”
