Confirmed from Powell Lake Township 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 park featuring playgrounds and paved walkways, plus wooded trails.
What runners say about Powell Lake Township Park
“Paved pathway that leads to the Polly Ann Trail, very well maintained”
“We went during a weekday and it was calm and a great time to check out all the different play areas.”
Nice, quiet little park. Connects to the Poly Ann trail in 2 different spots. Nice for a relaxing walk or a good starting point for a bike ride. Recently added a playground next to the library also so that's nice for the kids.
Outstanding playground, next to the public library. Portability restrooms. Hicking and biking path. Free parking lot.
Nice little park. Has a nice mile or so in the woods with some views of a lake. Well maintained. Adequate parking and a new pavilion. Adjoins the Polly Ann trail. Nice place to go to get "away from it all," while still being in civilization.
Nice paved walking trail. Connects to Pollyann trail. Nice decks over small lake
