Confirmed from Yukich Field'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.

Relaxed park featuring ponds and a 0.8-mile jogging route (with 2 other paths) that wraps around soccer and baseball fields.

Peaceful, serene, clean, open, smelled good, good parking. I'd walk another time around but was pulled from it.

I'm always able to come here and have a peaceful workout on the trails and track! The waterfall ponds and the breeze from the ice rink provide just enough balance of both adrenaline and calmness. I was able to do 4 miles in 1hr.waljing today!

★★★★★ — Jacqueline , Aug 2021

Small friendly park next to Kedzie avenue. Spring, summer and fall season is a nice place to walk, juggling or run. Morning stretches or just enjoying the view.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
