Confirmed from Fred George Greenway 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.
Expansive park featuring baseball and soccer fields as well as kids' play equipment.
What runners say about Fred George Greenway Park
“It's well maintained, and they have nice bathrooms (relatively speaking).”
“It has a huge, quiet nature trail that branches off in several different directions and has a bunch of wildlife and beautiful foliage to admire.”

My favorite park thus far in regards to trails. Before the kids playground area (which is unique and fun all on its own) there is a small parking area with some wonderful trails. It's usually quiet and has lots of different paths you can take.
Love this park! My girlfriend and I come here to walk our baby in the stroller and our dog. I take the dog on the unpaved trails when I don't bring the little one. I can't wait to watch him play on the playground they have as well as all the baseball and soccer fields!
Its a great park. Plenty of parking. Ample covered picnic areas. Huge trail and greenway. Really pretty. Grass could use some mowing tho
Update: 3/19 Repairs look Great!!! See new photos! Update: 8/18 Repairs needed on playground!!! Original: Leon County did a phenomenal job planning this park out between the baseball field, the football field, walking paths, and the trails. Super Fun! An excellent place to take the entire family. Bring a picnic!!!
