Confirmed from Tallmadge Lions 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.
Clean park featuring playgrounds, baseball fields and tennis courts.

I am not entirely sure what Lions does other than offer parks. With that said, I Have gotten the pleasure to experience multiple of their parks in my local area since i was a child. They have always stood out with excellence even amongst Metro and State parks.
Lions park is feature to many things of which I find daunting. I remember the last great day that I had here, as the end of school party was held here. I climbed a tree there. Sometimes I still do climb that tree, as it is a very pretty park. Has a lot for everyone.
my family and I love this park. the walking trail is beautiful and we'll maintained, there is ample space to run around and play, and the kids LOVE the swings and equipment to climb on.
Great place to run from, full bathroom and water fountain by the ball field! There's about 2-3 miles of shade on the freedom trail going left from the parking lot, going right there is notably less shade. There's also ditches to cool off in, if you have running friends into that sort of thing, which I do
