Confirmed from Wetlands 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“Nice trails and beautiful running waters but lot of mosquitos in the afternoon, so wear long pants and sleeves.”

This was a nice simple trail that follows a stream behind a neighborhood. It’s a quick trail that is short enough to do with kids on a nice evening.

★★★★☆ — Lacey , Oct 2021

Nice little park. Plenty of parking. Very short and easy trail that is three quarters concrete with the remainder being a dirt trail. Benches and a gazebo are available. Very peaceful. The only entry to the park is from north Crestwood. If you’re going south you’ll have to make a u-turn.
