We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Dragonfly Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Dragonfly Trail
Love, love LOVE this trail for bike rides and walks! This is the perfect spot for photography and a nice peaceful stroll. Between the trees, wooded bridges, rippling river and wildlife it feels almost like a fairy tail book path. I even seen a couple celebrating their marriage here.
Just started walking this trail and I love it. Everyone you meet on the trail is very nice. I love the fact that security rides along as well. The only thing I don't like is the people who have their unleashed dogs on the trail.
This is a wonderful trail in downtown Columbus providing a great place to bike, skate, stroll, jog, and gather outside. It runs along the Chattahoochee River so there are jumping off places to kayak or raft the Chattahoochee.
FYI The video of someone walking down to the water is the Bulldog Boat Launch Public Access, 1300 Victory Dr.
