We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Among The Waters Park and Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 5 mentions

“This park is beautiful, but it's unfortunate that there are so many people living in their cars, making it hard to find parking for a walk.”

It was a nice place to park for a bit to catch my breath & watch the river. Trails meander all around the area. Close to the river, but need to walk down a little bit to get to the water. A little rugged and rough around the edges.

★★★★☆ — Cookie , May 2025

Beautiful walk along the river front. Dad and I walked four miles one way and four back. Good workout with incredible scenery.

★★★★★ — Scott , Oct 2024

I've been going to this park for nearly a decade with my dog. It's much busier than it used to be. The sounds of the river bri g me back every time as do the cottonwood. No restrooms, no playground,, no picnic areas. Dogs on leashes. Just trails and a dirt parking lot

★★★★★ — Gerald , May 2023

I took a few bike rides through this park through this park while visiting friends in Farmington . It’s nice to get out of traffic on a bike / walk path when available . This was a safe, clean park to take my little dog Chica for bike ride off the main roadways .

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
