We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Springfield Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
This 44-acre tract offers fishing, sport courts & fields, a playground, a gazebo & walking paths.
What runners say about Springfield Park
“Nice walking paths and clean environment.”
“Beautiful ponds and walk ways with thousands and thousands of beautiful wild flowers in and out of the wetlands.”
“Since I'm not from around here I rely on Google to find the good places for dog walking and still keep us both interested in the surroundings.”
This is a hidden gem and a multipurpose easily accessed Bloomingdale Park. There is a beautiful ecosystem surrounding a lake. The bathroom around the lake is part of the DuPage Page County Trail system.
I'm sure this is a great sports park and playground for kids, but I came to check out the walking trail... I'm house and pet sitting and I like to take the dogs I watch on "Adventures".
