Confirmed from The Gardens at Woodfield'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.
Park featuring a sensory path, storybook walk, and other activities for kids.
What runners say about The Gardens at Woodfield
“Beautiful subdivision we exquisite homes, nice private entrance and all areas very well upkept !”
“I walk my dog while my kids run around or ride their bikes.”
This is a nice park to take a walk, and enjoy the cute little gardens scattered along the way. Most of the park is in the sun, so it is rather uncomfortable on a hot day.
Sweet little park with a walking path that also doubles as an interactive walk for the kiddos. Path is about a half mile loop. I went early to beat the heat and was able to get in 4 miles no problem. There are interactive spots for kids along with a story to read. Beautiful flowers are kept lively by local volunteers.
Beautiful park!! Awesome story trail for kiddos!! Wish there were shade trees and restrooms though.
Need to refill the doggie waste bag dispenser but was a great place for a walk!
