Confirmed from Clear Creek Wetlands (Future Site of 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.

What runners say about Clear Creek Wetlands (Future Site of Centennial Park)

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (8 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

This area offers great paved trails for walking, jogging, bike rides, and dog walking. It's also a basin for storm water runoff, so don't forget your bug repellent.

★★★★☆ — Oisìn , Sep 2017

This is a beautiful trail and well maintained. Thank you for providing us this quiet retreat.

★★★★★ — Denise , Sep 2021

Nice wide walking trails. Off the beaten path and no parking area, so mostly locals there. Great for painting or naturalist photography. I saw quite a few water foul today including a hen and 7 young ducklings crossing the walking trail.
