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.

What runners say about Bluestem Trailhead – Walnut Grove Recreational Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (7 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Such a fun trail. Beautiful views and it winds in and out of the woods and along the lake. Awesome for a jog or stroll. Loose sandy trail(I'm assuming from the horse traffic) was hard to run in in some spots, but overall this was a fun trail.

★★★★☆ — Brandon , Jul 2023

Low traffic and quiet- we didn't encounter any bikes! Nice flat trail but the sand makes it a little challenging. Bring extra shoes if you don't want to track the sand into your car and possibly some wet wipes to clean your feet! We hiked a little over 7 miles. I will definitely return!

★★★★★ — Mj , Aug 2023

Great hiking trail, mostly covered by trees, some tall grass to walk through, sometimes you’ll even see people riding horses on the trail. Fun time!
