Confirmed from Woodstork Trail/Hillmoor Lake 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.
Serene park featuring a paved path circling a lake as well as fitness equipment.

My wife and I enjoy this quite park. The walk around loop is paved and about 1.8 easy miles. We walk here often and enjoy the birds , turtles and fish along with an occasional aligator. There are public restrooms and well placed park benches. It's well maintained and picturesque .
Nice, quiet, little paved path right off of Hillmoor. Path goes around a lake.
