Confirmed from Greenleaf Parkway'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.
Park for children and dogs with opportunities for walking.
What runners say about Greenleaf Parkway
“Nice & clean place to excersise.”
“Decent place to walk , though not if you want a peaceful, quiet environment, as it's at a pretty busy intersection”
Nice & clean place to excersise. Spacious. They need to clean the walking area & smooth the outer walkway. It needs to be level. You will stumble if you're not paying attention!!
Wonderful exciting and mostly it's so healthy. Thank you! Dog walkers should STOP I almost walked in poop on the walk path.😒

Wonderful and peaceful spot to walk. Wish they would maintain it a little better.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
- 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.
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
