    Running

    Lone Elk Park spans over 500 acres and provides a serene escape from city life. As you make your way around the woodland trails, keep an eye out for the wonderful Elk, often seen grazing in the fields or near the open water.

    Other wildlife you may spot include white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, and bison. The trail has a few gentle inclines and declines, but they are barely noticeable, and the path is well-maintained.

    The White Bison Trail offers an easy jogging experience through natural terrain, covering 3.1 miles (4.9 km) with a gentle elevation gain of 230 feet (70 metres). You can expect to complete this route in about 36 minutes. As you jog, you'll enjoy views of the Lone Elk Reservoir and the surrounding plant life, especially vibrant in spring with wildflowers.

    When planning your visit, be aware that the trail can become muddy and slick after rain, with exposed tree roots requiring careful footing. It's best to wear appropriate footwear for varied surfaces, as some parts are well-beaten paths while others are rockier. Remember that domestic pets are not allowed on this trail due to the abundant wildlife.

    What truly sets this route apart is the high chance of spotting diverse wildlife, including bison, elk, and deer, in their natural habitat. An observation tower along the way provides panoramic views of Lone Elk Park, giving you a wider perspective of the area's natural beauty.
