Hi, is it safe for females to run alone on the road path through Forest Park? If so, are day-time hours generally okay or are there times to avoid (like early morning ~6/7am or around sunset throughout the year ~4-7pm)? Thanks in advance!

Don't be afraid to go out alone just be weary about your surroundings and if you still feel unsafe take somebody with you or jog around many other joggers

4 to 7 pm it's much better

It's safe but in the mornings it is pretty lonely

I think it is safe in general. There are lots of runners throughout the day. I will exercise caution regardless of time and location. I think early mornings are ok if it is day light. I will NEVER run once it is dark anywhere and specially alone.

Its safe but if u feel uncomfortable bring a dog or something. Never had any creeps or weirdos bother me there

it's ok just be aware of your surroundings

I wouldn't recommend you run those times without an escort or pepper spray. Use common sense and don't drop your guard.

There have been a few attacks including loose dogs. Check with the 105th pct.

It's safe but be careful if you go to bike trails because when I went there were boxes of condoms and a lot of homeless people there
