Confirmed from General Bragg Trailhead'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.

“Not crowded and good access to some of the more scenic points on the Greenway.”

This is one trail in the downtown are that connects to several others. It’s easy to forget how far you e walked while enjoying the surroundings of flora and fauna. It’s nice to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city around us.

The Murfreesboro Greenway System is Amazing.. I ride thru the Greenway at least 4 or 5 times a week on my Electric Unicycle so you may see me whizzing by or enjoying some photography.

★★★★★ — Ansari , Jan 2021

Very cool park area off the greenway trail! This is a great area off the Stones River, lots of places to explore!

★★★★★ — Cari , Dec 2019

This is a great historic spot right next to the Stones River battlefield. Plus it offers picnic tables a couple of barbecue grills water for drinking and filling water bottles and access to the Stones River Greenway and Stones River Battlefield

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
