We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Beatty Park 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.

Beatty Park is a beautiful ravine nestled into the Southern hill of Steubenville with the gorgeous Union Cemetary connecting at the top. There's a walking trail, disc golf, playground, picnic shelter. It's a beautiful little surprise, well worth the trip for a day hike and picnic.

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.
