Confirmed from Ollie Turner 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.
What runners say about Ollie Turner Park
“Enjoyed one of the several walking trails in the park, surrounded by beautiful foliage and river.”
“Lovely, family-friendly park.”
“Great spot to take your family or a dog as even by yourself to just walk on trails.”
Great place never too busy and always find parking there. Great spot to take your family or a dog as even by yourself to just walk on trails. Great view of the pond where you can just sit at ponder on life.
That's beautiful! My husband and I are missionaries in New England. We were walking down the streets when we saw this place. We had to stop for some minutes to enjoy the view. God is the best artist ever.
Pleasant park with good parking. Good for short walks and walks with kids. Forest area is less well travelled so you can get away from the other users.
Nice walk around the pond. About a mile. Lots of dog walkers. Take those tick signs seriously here, theynare numerous if you wander off the trail
