Confirmed from Wildlife Woods 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.
Picnic destination and recreation area offering pickleball courts and a playground.
What runners say about Wildlife Woods Park
Nice peaceful park. The pavilion my brother and his wife rented it for their son's graduation party. It was so NICE! There were 6 or 8 picnic tables and restrooms for both men and women right there in this building connected to the pavilion! The area has lots of room for kids to run around and enjoy themselves.
Great gathering place for family and friends with a large pavilion, pickle ball courts and walking trails.
A very relaxing walking trail. I have raved about it. Also got the most amazing pictures of the sunset!!
Great place for a short hike in the woods (~2 miles round trip) that was near to Novi.
