Confirmed from Bear Legacy Adventure Trails' 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.
Bicycle and walking trails with wooden sculptures like teepees, plus a bike park and kids' activities.
What runners say about Bear Legacy Adventure Trails
“Easy trails with fun activities for kids.”
Perfect adventure for kids of all ages. activities throughout the trail to keep them engaged and an awesome bicycle track for adventurous riders. My 4 year old and 2 year old ask to go back often.
We love going walking here. It's fun for kids and they love all the hidden things along the trails. One of the favorite trails is the Bear hunt trail with all the characters hidden along the hike. The wooden teepees and obstacles are also so fun.
Awesome adventure park for kids. Fully shaded with plenty of well spaced activities for kids to enjoy along the trails. We will definitely return with bikes for the bike course next time!
Bear Legacy was awesome, had I been properly prepared, I would have done a review for my YouTube channel, but next time I am in the area, I am all over it. In the meantime, this place is full of trails and different obstacles built be boy scouts. You can walk or ride a bike on the trails.
