Confirmed from Cardinal Greenway 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.
What runners say about Cardinal Greenway Trailhead
“Beautiful walk there and so peaceful that I will definitely be going back there.”
I really enjoy this trail. I loved riding on this trail when i was younger. I havent riden in a few years and have no clue what the safety is like on the trail but i plan on riding 30 miles on it here soon. I hope to enjoy it once again when i decide to ride.
Nice place to walk, run, or bike. Too bad the police in Jonesboro don't enforce the pedestrian walkways. You take your life in your own hands, crossing Water Street and Main Street22/35.
Rode from Gas City/Jonesboro Trailhead to Miller Avenue Trailhead and back (13 miles). Great Sunday morning ride. Clean, fairly smooth & well maintained.
Love the trail, especially the part that runs along the river. So beautiful and serene...
