Confirmed from Diamond Point 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 5 mentions

“Beautiful park that has been quiet every time I've gone.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“A nice and peaceful place to spend time with family and friends.”

Nice park to go and spend some quiet time at during the week. Not sure how it is on weekends, but it's wonderful to take a walk or sit on the beach. Parking is limited, however, so if it's busy, you may find yourself having to park on the street (unless that is occupied by college vehicles).

Love this park! Love to swim! Love to climb! Lots of space to move around in. Many great paths to follow. Enjoy. They have port-a-potties now! 7/13/2020

★★★★★ — Owen , Jul 2020

Great spot for a picnic or a swim. Nice beach, tables, pavilions, dock, and rental shop. They have a boat ramp but the downside is they don't have any trailer parking so be ready for a walk if you want to put in there.

★★★★☆ — Luke , Aug 2020

This is the perfect place for a walk with your dog or a friend. It is beautiful during all seasons. Picnic tables available, waste receptacles, paved walking path, pavilion, playground, etc. Thank you City of Bemidji for making this public park and keeping it looking wonderful.

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.

“Ample parking, restrooms (did not use so can't comment), good playgrounds, and right on the lake-it even has a little, groomed beach, although there is no lifeguard.”
