Confirmed from East Glen Greenbelt 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 East Glen Greenbelt Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (31 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

We love this park. I left my phone in the car before our hike and thank I did because Lacy had her phone and was able to find our way back from Find my Phone. 2 mile detour back to the Rogue and Cash and Lacy rash from poison Ivy 3 days later! We’re going back suited and booted up ready got the next adventure 🤗
