We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Fort Kearny Hike-Bike 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 Fort Kearny Hike-Bike Trail
“What a beautiful place to bring family and enjoy a great time together.”
Woodsy nature area. I needed to sneak in a couple miles running on a long road trip. They have a nice shaded bike run path that crosses a couple bridges and it’s pretty serene.
Nice place to walk and see the cranes! Beautiful view of the Platte River. Saw tons of birds and deer!
It was a path. It was a good path. Saw a bunch of cranes (in season). Kinda nice to get down to the river too.
Started in Kearney on the city trail and went out to Fort Kearney recreation area. Wonderful day for an awesome ride.
