Confirmed from Wolf River Greenway - Epping Way'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 Wolf River Greenway - Epping Way
“A great place to take a walk and enjoy some beautiful weather!”
“Nice and Quiet and very peaceful at this park very clean compared to park in the near by area I recommend everyone visit”
Nice new picnic tables. New benches around the lake. Bridges going over the water. Some of the trails are paved. Perfect for walking, running, or biking. It's not completed and I have no idea when it will be. Hopefully soon! I'd love to go biking there regularly when the rest of it is paved. ☺️
I've trail is a nice distance. The fish in the river are plentiful. I enjoy the scenery and the clean park
A great place to take a walk and enjoy some beautiful weather! The Wolf River Conservancy has done a great job with this location!
I love this new addition to the greenway, the lake is nice and relaxing
