Confirmed from Cheri A Lindsey Memorial 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.

well-maintained 6 mentions

“The bugs are pretty annoying, however the park is clean and people were very friendly!”

Awesome skate park. My son always ask to go. Great for skateboarding, biking or scootering. Everyone we run into is usually very nice and courteous. Great free fun activity. Also a pool, playground, picnic tables and dog park in the same area.

★★★★★ — Jessica , Feb 2022

Nice skateboard park. Basketball courts, small playground and a nice walking trail along the river. My dogs loved it.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth , Aug 2025

My kids enjoy the walking path alongside the river. Enjoy sitting on the rocks and the scenery. People should clean up after their dogs more, but I still enjoy the trail.

★★★★★ — Sanaatirah , Sep 2021

The dog park here is nice, with few enough visitors that you can seclude your dog in one of the three divided areas, if need be. There's a spot for small dogs, large dogs and an agility course.

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.
