Englewood MetroPark

It was a beautiful day and I was in town on business. I wanted to get in a quick hike before meeting co-workers for dinner. I found Englewood via Google, it did not disappoint!

Many different trails were available, and all the trails I took were well maintained and marked. If you’re looking for some good hiking trails in Dayton this is the place!!

Came here for the first time today and hiked the Green trail. One of the best maintained trails I've seen. Fairly busy still given the weather, but not annoyingly so. Loved the waterfalls, definitely want to go back when there's more rain.

Keep an eye out for the pumpkin ash trees. Super cool.

I have been coming to this park for over 50 years . It has changed over the years .I went on dates hiking through the woods with my then girlfriend (now wife for 39 years:) the woods. We still hike the woods ..this time Patty's fall. GREAT PLACE TO RELAX 😌

Nice area, really enjoyed the river. There isn’t a bathroom at the parking lot for the trail. Most of the trail is paved and probably safe for people with disabilities. There is a large ramp with a light grade to get down the damn if you want to use it. Be careful around the damn opening it’s very dangerous and you could easily fall in. There is a lot of debris around it.

One of the many parks around Aullwood Garden. A nice walk along the river that leads to a very beautiful and neat garden that is cross the street. Parking lot close to the river and to those who love kayaking there’s a small ramp to drop kayak into the river. Fishing lovers and enjoy their time and fish as the area close to the river is big. The park has a small picnic area close to the river. Admission and parking is free. The only restriction is that pets aren’t allowed inside the garden. All the place are kids friendly BUT parents pay attention to your kiddos as the river water is sometimes high and the stream is strong.
The garden is a combination of different themes with a channel passing through it and a small pond. The trees is as old as hundreds of years and very high. Seating areas are available around the garden and each one has its own set. I love spending time at this place and highly recommend it.
