Reviews
"Thanks to the unseasonably warm/ wet December, the trails were a bit muddy. I still prefer the dirt trails rather than the gravel or paved trails because it keeps the trails more natural, and the impact is easier on my bones. Others might need or prefer the gravel trails. It is nice that Secor Metropark has trails for both preferences. The sections with wood walkways were slippery and made me question whether I needed to replace my trusty my hiking boots! The American Beech tree leaves, which color with the season change but keep some of their leaves during the winter, make for a quite picturesque forest."
"My family and dogs go for hikes here regularly, great place to stretch your legs. The trails looked to be recently restoned so they were nice to walk down, there was no mud at all on the trails we went on. This was very nice seeing it was late December for our walk."
"very beautiful, but lots of still water causing crazy amounts of mosquitoes. some trails very muddy but plenty of trails to avoid the muddy ones."
"Toledo area is blessed with amazing and beautiful parks and among them Secor Metropark is a gorgeous place to go for picnic, walk or spending time in woods. This park is huge and has beautiful walking trails in dense trees which looks lush green. I always enjoyed going deep into the woods, however there are other trails too which are wide and open. Indeed a great park and a place to be visited once in a while"
"We decided to go exploring a new park for the kids. We stumbled upon the baby park they have not known there was a bigger one buried deeper into the park. This is a must-go-to park with the kids. It has things to do for all kids. Interactive music items, wheelchair ramps, things that spin, a few slides, swings, and more that I cannot think of check these photos out. The only negative I have was the walkway to get to the park from the parking lot was flooded, muddy, and not easily accessible."
