Confirmed from Voice of America 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.
Sprawling greenspace featuring a stocked lake for fishing & boating, a dog park & a paved trail.
What runners say about Voice of America MetroPark
“Can get crowded, which means you really have to meet an eye on your kids, but the playground is HUGE and detailed and well-maintained, and there are nice walking areas.”
“Beautiful park didn’t go past the entrance, walked our dog up the hill to check out the views before his grooming at PetSmart”
“ The hill was well-packed with snow and perfect for all ages, from little kids trying sledding for the first time to teens going full speed down the slope.”
By far one of the BEST parks in Butler county! The lake is definitely a beautiful place to take a walk, the "hill mountain" is a nice stretch/warm up. I LOVE spending hours in this park. Not only for the beauty, but for all that it has to offer.
Beautiful park. The path around the lake is clean with lots of benches to rest.

Beautiful view of the pond. They have a nice walking trail. There’s a smaller playground and a larger playground, so that kids of all ages can have fun. Just wish the small playground had a little more for the young ones. We’ve been here a couple times and our family has enjoyed it and had fun every time.
