I'd say this is the best park in Madison and one I've been going to quite regularly for at least 3 years now. The actual length of the path is quite generous and it takes a solid 50+minutes to walk the whole thing at a leisurely pace. The scenery changes from woods with streams to gorgeous meadows with flowers. There is a tall hill and other trails also that branch off the main loop. It is popular enough now that you might even find parking troubles on weeknights! There are many people traveling at different speeds from biking, running and walking but largely everyone is friendly and polite in this peaceful area.
