Confirmed from Oak Knoll 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.
Relaxed space with a playground, picnic tables, pool and swing sets.
What runners say about Oak Knoll Park
“We had a beautiful day, so everyone was able to sit outside.”
“It's a cute little park with plenty of trees for shade.”
For a small park, this place packs a punch! Great little play ground for different ages. Nature trail, open field area for a picnic, throwing a baseball, football or soccer. My favorite part is that 90% is all covered by shade!!
Peaceful, nice swings, nice little walking path, the bridge is a sweet little piece of Ohio history
