Confirmed from Simon Moon 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.

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (164 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 9 mentions

“There’s a nice kids play area, a clean shelter spot, a nice flat concrete hike by a little lake almost behind the park.”

Great park next to trails that connects to multiple larger trails like The Monon. Modern well maintained park with many features: play ground, fire pit, corn hole, playground, covered picknick gazebo, adult swing, restrooms, water for you and pets, sledding in winter.

★★★★★ — James , Oct 2019

Very nice park for toddlers. There is plenty of space to run around, and a nice covered pavillion with multiple tables and grill. Bathrooms are great and have changing tables. I do wish there were swings. That's the one big thing this park is missing.

★★★★☆ — Dana , May 2023

They really went out of their way to make this a very attractive park. It was very run down and "industrial" looking. The lake was not appealing at all. The trail was slightly rerouted and together, they make a nice path.

★★★★★ — Dodd , Aug 2025

Very small, has a free little library for us book lovers. Nice soft turf so when someone falls down it's not into woodchips. Great people. Nice park, very clean,. The bathrooms are clean, water fountains aren't on right now so they conserve water.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

“You can sled down the hill in the winter and have a party in the shelter in the summer.”
