Confirmed from Cedar Canyon 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 Cedar Canyon Trailhead
“Stunning paved trail within Cedar City's limits that's accessible all year round.”
“This is an easy walk up and back with a stream on one side and creek on the other.”
Pretty cool trail paved and fun in the snow. It's a easy trail no real hills or anything like that. Great place for a relaxing walk with the wife, dogs, or RC toys
This is my favorite paved trail in Cedar City. The elevation change is gentle and the scenery is amazing.
Stunning paved trail within Cedar City's limits that's accessible all year round.
This is an easy walk up and back with a stream on one side and creek on the other. I would call it a paved path more than a trail. Fully accessible and family friendly! The mountains are pretty and not busy. Starts at Cedar Park and has a nice stream for kids to play and adults to enjoy.
