Confirmed from Centennial 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.

Open 24h

Park with picnic tables and a trail for walking.

well-maintained 4 mentions

“A small clean park along the heritage trail.”

It is a small Terre Haute park it is not fenced and borders the Hertitage trail. It is nothing more than some mowed grass and a shelter with a picnick table.

★★★★☆ — Last , May 2017

Just stopped at this spot for a quick break from riding on the trail. Everything was clean and maintained. Not much more you can demand from a rest park.

★★★★★ — Kenneth , Dec 2021

Just a park that you can stop and rest along Heritage Trail! Among other possibilities!

★★★★☆ — George , May 2023

Posted hours for the park or trailhead. Gates and parking lots often close earlier than the trail itself, and seasonal hours change — worth a check before a pre-dawn or after-dark run.
