Confirmed from Highway 2 Greenway'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 Highway 2 Greenway

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (4 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

I could be biased when it comes to outdoor reviews. As someone who goes outdoors at least twice a day, either running, walking, or biking, I have always enjoyed my time here.
