Confirmed from Arrowhead Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. 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 walking path, does goes through neighborhoods and an industrial park but a great way to get a solid walk in”

Tranquil terrain, gorgeous. Arrowhead Park initiates an easy walkway on little Lake Buttes des Mortes. You can circle the "loop"to the bridge at Fritzes Park and cross over Doty Island lakeside to return to the starting point. Friendly fellow walkers will greet you. It's a gem.

★★★★★ — Woodhaven , Sep 2024

Good chance of spotting Bald Eagles here! One of my favorite places to bike or walk, easy access from Main Street. Benches with relaxing view of the water. Always plenty of wildlife around. Paved low-incline trail and bridges maintained in excellent condition.

★★★★★ — Joe , Sep 2020

A nice little park for walks; the wind by the lake is quite calming. We came for a few of the geocaches hidden here, and I'm planning on using it as a place to walk the dog. I hope they end up turning it into a dog park. It would be nice to have one I could walk to.

★★★★☆ — Macy , May 2017

Easy terrain to walk or bike up to a decent distance with pretty scenery around the lake. The bike repair station is a nice touch if you're biking long distances

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.
