Confirmed from Cedar Glades 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.
Mountain-biking and hiking trails through tall pines, plus a playground and disc golf course.
What runners say about Cedar Glades Park
“This park is way cool, well maintained and very diverse as far as what you can do here.”
“Love Cedar Glades from just taking my son to play at the playground after school or have beautiful weddings.”
Lots to do and see... Some good jump and pump tracks. Easy mtb bike trails. Restrooms are located close by. Frisby golf also.
A Beautiful Skoolieship friendly Place to spend a day... And Home of The Ouachita Highland Games (which are Wonderfully Fun). However, the amenities, at least where we were, lack something to be desired, namely pottable water. Certainly recommend going.
This park is way cool, well maintained and very diverse as far as what you can do here. The short but sweet bike course with ramps and challenges is fun! There is a RC / Drone area as well and the trail head is here , oh yeah disc golf too.
Peaceful place to go and enjoy some quality time. Very secluded and out of the chaos of the city. Great for scenic photo shoots too!
