Confirmed from Glen Travis 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 Glen Travis Park
Technically, this park consists solely of the forested area and paved trail, which is part of the Dardenne Greenway, that begins near the Rabbit Run Park parking lot. It does not include the lake/pond north of it--that is private property (there are signs posted noting this).
This is a very high-quality natural area that protects a nearly virgin oak swamp. It is a perfect place to see what nature should look like in the middle of suburbia. Lots of biodiversity, native plants, and very few invasive species until you walk into the normal part of Rabbit Run Park.
Not sure why this park and Rabbit Run are considered two different parks. Why have a park inside another park? Even Glen Travis could be lumped in together with these two, and just consider the whole area one park. The trail is nice and scenery is pretty, but it's hard to tell which park you're in when taking pictures.
Plan your run at Glen Travis Park
The practical stuff
- AccessDawn to dusk — the gates close, so do not plan a run that finishes after dark
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
