December 20, 2020The trail was very nice. We walked all the trails in the park and it came out to 3.3mi. It had rained extensively the previous day so the trail was slick with mud but no soupy or deep patches of mud. Overall a nice hike but recommend hiking shoes if it's rained recently.
December 13, 2020December 13, 2020December 6, 2020Well maintained and enjoyable walking paths. Most of the trail is a paved bike/walking path through the park complex. There are a few sections of gravel paths that wind through some lovely wooded areas. There is a good view of the river from one of the picnic pavilion areas.
December 5, 2020Good urban trail. Parcour was our favorite because it was very shady and in the woods.
September 20, 2020The use charges are usually necessary for Great Parks. The promenade which is not paved is connected, but three are dead-end except one on the big paved promenade. Many people take a walk and walking and running and take a walk with a dog.
September 20, 2020August 10, 2020Trail was mostly paved road (the blue line on the map was all paved and the black was trail). Pleasant but was looking for more of a whole trail hike experience.
April 25, 2020April 18, 2020Wouldn’t exactly call this a hike. The trail is entirely paved/gravel. Very pretty park but if you’re looking for a place for a good hike this isn’t it.
August 14, 2019This is a good mix of paved, gravel, and dirt trails all linked together. I live right down the street so it’s my go to place.

June 8, 2018The trail system consists of a central shared use paved loop with several gravel trails branching off, each a little under a mile in length. The trails are well maintained gravel and have varying elevation. It is pretty heavily trafficked and does not have a remote feel. It wouldn't be the best for a scenic hike, but is great for an easy to reach walk in the woods. I use the loop as a trail running route and it is perfect for a run through the woods without worrying about breaking your ankle on a tree root. The side trails or the main loop can be repeated to selectively add distance.
April 22, 2018great for a run, boring for scenery.
June 14, 2017peaceful and calm and a nice stone path
May 14, 2017good stuff
March 5, 2017Enjoyed a good walk through the park today! At times it is wooded and hiking other parts of the loop are paved and more open air. My dog and I really enjoyed it! There is a charge of $3 or $5 depending on if you live in Hamilton County or not. I didn't know and was lucky enough to have some cash.
October 9, 2016A descent trail if you are looking for a quick hike. I don't care much that it's gravel.
May 24, 2016Woodland Mound is a nice park. It features many of the same amenities as other parks in Hamilton County, OH. I differ with the "out and back" description given on AllTrails. There is a continuous paved trail that spans about 1.3 miles. From the paved loop are several gravel out and back trails that are .6 to .9 miles in length. I did two of the side trails and completed the paved circuit three times to meet my workout needs.
December 31, 2015This is a nice trail system with a central, paved, bike/hike loop of 3.5 miles. You can extend this by a couple miles by veering off on a few "there and back" side trails that follow very well marked and maintained dirt trails.
May 15, 2014A fairly easy loop with well marked trails.
