Confirmed from Atri 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.

Nice little park with a couple of large trees for shade good rest stop easy access to the levy walkway not a lot of parking

★★★★★ — Z , Feb 2021

Sweet quaint little park in a quiet senior neighborhood. Nice rest stop during a brisk walk on the nearby levee. No amenities but clean. A few picnic tables for a sit down with a coffee and friend. No playground. Significant green grass area though for the grand kids to run around.

★★★★★ — Karen , Feb 2021

Small grass area with trees. You can walk up onto the levee and walk either direction along Susepuedes creek.

★★★★☆ — Lori , Feb 2025

Walking the dog is always nice and relaxing. The best thing is your with mans best friend your dog.

★★★★★ — Ronnie , Jul 2017

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.
