Confirmed from Sand Run Metro Park Revere Rd'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.
Kid-friendly park featuring a trail for hiking, jogging, and cycling.

Nice little parking lot. Well maintained path. They are doing some nice upgrades on the creek bed and the bridges look great. My niece and I were able to see lots of critters!
The fact I found this trail on accident makes my love for Ohio even stronger. This state is amazing. This trail is spectacular, quiet, long, beautiful
Beautiful 😍 Mingo Trail is a Workout 😁 Mostly Shaded walking and hiking areas. Clean 🥰 Peaceful Nature and Streams to walk next to 💚👍🌱🏞️
Beautiful jogging/walking/pedestrian trail! If you start from the Revere Road parking lot at 2400 Sand Run, it's a nice gradual downhill for about a half mile until you cross Sand Run Rd. The surface is very smooth, crushed limestone or paved with some footbridges that cross the creek.
