Reviews
"The trail gave short and long options and had paracourse challenges. The short trail is under a mile. There is a creek down the long trail."
"Gotta Love Winton Woods, it's by far the best of the Hamilton County parks. It has everything you can ask for, and so close to the homestead"
"This is one of my favorite trails at the park, especially when the weather has been a little wet. The path is well-maintained and covered with woodchips, so most of it is dry at all times. This has become my go-to trail for a nice relaxing getaway to nature in the city."
"I use this trail to walk my dog because it is often less crowded AND it is ALL COVERED unlike the other trails all out in the sun. There are benches by a tiny alcove in the water to sit and enjoy as well. You can do the long trail or shorter version for parcour or hiking. Its a nice trail, my favorite after a hard days work for a semi-quick walk in the woods."
