Confirmed from Portage 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.

Vast space offering picnic tables and playground equipment, plus skiing in winter.

What runners say about Portage Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (132 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Love walking here with the kids. The trail is great and only goes into the woods a tiny bit. Our daughter loves riding her bike and catching butterflies! Nice park lots of room to run around! Dont know if there is access to the water but that would be great!

Hike there often with my dog. This is a great place for exercise and skiing, just not this year- no snow!

★★★★★ — King , Feb 2024

Nice park for the kiddos, a walking track, nice fields for sports, huge parking lot.
