Confirmed from Timberman Ridge MetroPark'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.
Laid-back park featuring hiking trails, picnic tables, and ponds.

Love this park! Very clean and nice to have paved trails and new playground.
My husband took me on a bike ride here for the 1st time over the weekend. I was a great trail to ride along with many areas to hop off and site see. We captured photos of a herring and a large roosting of vultures. We spent about 45 minutes but definitely could've stayed longer. Theres options of areas to fish as well!
This park offers some great views and a connection to nature. The trails are well kept and very peaceful.
