Confirmed from Prairie Trails Park, Bolingbrook Park District'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 Prairie Trails Park, Bolingbrook Park District
Great park but doesn't have much of a big playground. The grass is usually tall so you can't really play soccer. But the view is great and the walk pretty nice.
Great park to walk with a family dog or have a family together during outings.
