We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Wonder Lake State Park Hiking Trails yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.

“Well marked trails, not level, up and down”

Interesting hike and area with some nice views. You can get a decent workout in due to some steep uphill sections.

★★★★★ — George , Oct 2018

Great place to hike a few miles. Sights are so so a lil eh . But good place to get a hike or trail run in.

★★★★☆ — Danimalous , May 2021
