Confirmed from Willow Run 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.
What runners say about Willow Run Park
Medium size park with large playground for all ages. Small and large slides. Lots of climbing areas. 4 swings( two baby and two reg). One covered picnic table and lots of open space for playing ball or picnics. One bench and no bathroom. In a quiet residential area.
