Confirmed from Sycamore Run 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.
What runners say about Sycamore Run Park
“Visited Sycamore Run Park during snowfall and it was stunningly beautiful, even wished for more snow!”
“A quiet, tranquil spot along the Olentangy River.”
Visited Sycamore Run Park during snowfall and it was stunningly beautiful, even wished for more snow! Had a great time playing by the river, discovering fish, and sadly, a long-gone deer. Enjoyed spotting ducklings and embarking on good hikes.
Trails along the Olentangy River allows for scenic views. The park has a large parking area, a picnic table,no restrooms or playground.
Great view of the river! Two looping trails that took 20 minutes to walk. It was good to see all the invasive species removed. Make sure to perform a tick check before leaving.
