Confirmed from Bayou Bend 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.

“Pads are concrete with good signage.”

A small but lovely park; it has a wonderful playground for kids to enjoy, along with several resting areas (tables, cooking pit) located around the vicinity. You can go for a relaxing run, or take your bike on the trail. It always feels safe, no matter when I go, if safety is an issue for you. Overall, it's wonderful!

★★★★★ — Emerald , Oct 2016

Outstanding disc golf course for beginners! It is complete with concrete tee boxes and baskets in good condition. The maps indicate two tees and two baskets per hole, but there is only one of each, so keep that in mind. The park also features swings, grass areas, benches, and a path around it.

★★★★★ — Kevin , Feb 2020

I grew up in this neighborhood, close to the park. Its a nice, pretty safe, spot to bring the kids. It has a trail, to walk on, a basketball court, and FRISBIE GOALS... I use to bring my 22 yr.old son, when he was little, now twenty years later, I'm bringing my youngest(2 yr. Old Son).

★★★★★ — Alma , Mar 2018

I only go for the disc golf. It's a quick 9 holes. Great for someone who is just getting into disc golf. Other than that it's got a nice walking trail and a small playground with a basketball court.

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.
