Confirmed from South Trailhead of Alum Creek Trail & Start of Blacklick Creek Trail'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 South Trailhead of Alum Creek Trail & Start of Blacklick Creek Trail
Very nice Park that I visit very often. Love the bike trails and off trails too. Very nice Rangers who are very friendly and helpful.
First time for my wife and me on this part of the Greenway Trail. Rode from Three Creeks to Blacklick Metro Park. The first 8 miles you don't cross any roads. Beautiful. There is a stretch of a couple of miles along a road with some crossings, but the lights/crosswalks work. Then it's into Blacklick.
I love walking my dog out here. It's so nice. This place always puts me in a good mood. I also feel safe here.
Very nice park, large, well maintained, clean restroom. Fantastic trails.
