Confirmed from Timberlake 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.

“Nice to explore, not crowded, follow a deer path to a hidden pond.”

Nice park, wonderful dog park area. Super clean pond with lots of good fishing, not overrun with carp like some areas. The trails are a little rough, i.e no pavement, running back to the lake but with the proper shoes it's not an issue. I will definitely be going back.

★★★★★ — Christopher , Mar 2021

Nice dog park ! Stevie and Stan Played on the equipment w Lots of room to run. There are 2 fenced in runs, one for little digs under 30 lbs and a biggger one for Big dogs over 30 lbs.

★★★★☆ — Jim , Aug 2020

Nice dog park. Found the fitness trail. It went to station #4, and then vanished. They need a crew to re-mark the trails. The park is nice, grassy awards, lakes and woods...a playground for kids and a couple of picnic shelters. I think that's everything.

★★★★☆ — Bob , Sep 2020

Nice to explore, not crowded, follow a deer path to a hidden pond. Wetland restoration in progress, nice to have a real natural area in Solon Park District.

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.
