Confirmed from Cardinal Greenway McCulloch Trailhead'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.

“Very beautiful and well lit at night I wish they would have had this when I was a child living out here.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“This is the coolest place in Muncie so peaceful and serene when I need to destress i head to the Cardinal Greenway”

Cardinal Greenway is great for getting out and being active. Hubby and I like to get on it at different points and take long walks. We headed east on the McCvlloch trail. We like to view the White River. Seeing Blue Herrons in flight is awesome but hard to get a photo of.

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.
