Confirmed from Clabber Creek Trail'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 Clabber Creek Trail
“It is fairly quiet and largely shaded which is nice.”
“A great place to stretch legs and practice bike riding for all ages.”
We enjoy this trail for a fairly leisurely stroll with the toddler. A great place to stretch legs and practice bike riding for all ages. It is fairly quiet and largely shaded which is nice.
Nice clean quiet trail. Good for a run or bike if you're looking for a concrete paved trail. I would recommend it for kids. The path under the bridge gets a little muddy after big rains.
This is a great trail to walk your dog along a beautiful creek. It is a bottomland/floodplain ecosystem with many sycamore, ash, honeylocust, willow, and hackberry trees. There are many birds in spots, beaver dams, and other interesting wildlife habitats. This is an important ecosystem. Easy walk flat and paved.
Elevated trail through a wetland and wet Prarie. Lots of wildflowers and deer.
