We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Timber Trails 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.
What runners say about Timber Trails Park
“Quiet, serene, nice trail”
Loved this hidden gem!!! Sun & shade, flora & fauna!! Peaceful! Love the wildflowers and saw a resident deer with great photo ops. Very nice for a walk
Nice secluded area to sit out and enjoy the sun. There's a picnic area, two half courts to play basketball and a couple trails leading to some small scenic spots.

“Kids continue to flip over the portapotty but turtle lake is great and basketball court and ice skating in winter and sledding hills”
