Red Fox is an easy, flat loop hike of about 1.3 miles in Stonelick State Park in Ohio, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. The trail is a loop with no elevation gain, so it works well for a short outing or as a warm-up before heading to other parts of the park. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically late spring and early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Milford put May highs around 76°F and September highs around 79°F, with July the warmest month at about 87°F. Lakeview and Beechtree are both about 0.3 miles away, and the Blue Heron Trail is about 1.5 miles off. The Aletheia Loop is roughly 8.4 miles away.
