Confirmed from Coates Bluff Nature 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 Coates Bluff Nature Trail
What a lovely little hike! Looking at a map of the trail BEFORE hand would have been helpful, but well marked and cared for paths made for a little afternoon adventure.
