Confirmed from Douglasville Running 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.
Paved running and walking trail featuring an unpaved segment, plus seating and water for swimming.

This is a lovely trail for a walk! It's so peaceful and the scenery is amazing. 🥰 There are benches scattered along the trail if you need a break, or just to sit and enjoy the views! I also love that there are leave a book/take a book libraries out there.
