We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Four Mile Creek Greenway (Sportsplex Matthews) 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 Four Mile Creek Greenway (Sportsplex Matthews)

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (2 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

This is a GREAT walking trail! A nice, contained space to get your steps in. And so convenient if your kids are playing sports at the Sportsplex :)
