Confirmed from Sylvan Manor 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.

“Wheelchair accessible porta potty, clean as a whistle, and the hand sanitizer dispenser was full.”

Nice little park hidden in a neighborhood. Direct access to the West Bloomfield bike trail.

★★★★☆ — Jeff , Aug 2023

Great park with picnic tables, a grill, and a Porta potty. It’s a great park for toddlers and new walkers. Small but cute and very friendly. Also very quiet.

★★★★★ — Nina , Aug 2022

Small park but with up to date playground. Sizable field with sitting benches. Soft, rubbery playing floor. Basketball court and little league baseball field. Parking in between that also leads to the trail. Rules and regulations posted and dog friendly. Overall very accommodating and pleasant.

★★★★★ — T , Jan 2019

Love the lake air and scenic views on these long trails! Today we say muskrats, chipmunks, and turtles! Kind of surprised seeing groups of people and I only a few people wearing masks on these tight trails. Very hard to keep the distant.

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.

“Basketball court, trail entrance, portapotty, two picnic tables on a concrete slab, lots of grassy areas, and maybe a baseball diamond across the small parking lot.”
