Confirmed from Bemidji City 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.
Large park featuring a softball complex & disc golf, plus cross-country ski trails & ice rinks.
What runners say about Bemidji City Park
“It was even cleaned up after the recent storms, so very well maintained.”
There's just a ton of things to do all in that little area, you know? you can skate @ the park you can curl you can ice-skate and then you can ice-skate outside you can play softball, or walk to the frolf course.
Nice small park. Clean and well maintained restrooms nearby. Our 5 year old enjoyed the playground. Our dogs enjoyed the paved walking trail and the trails for the frisbee golf. Recommend.
Great trail in the park. It was even cleaned up after the recent storms, so very well maintained. Guy on the mower could stop the blades when passing trail users though.
One of the best parks in town for young children. Great visit for all families and people visiting/walking downtown.
