Confirmed from Isaac Evans 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.

“Very nice, family friendly park along the Green River.”

This is a beautiful area by Green River. We picked up a picnic lunch at Panera and packed a few beach chairs. We walked near the bridge and found a prefect little sandy area to sit by the river, eat and read. It was very peaceful and quiet. Only a few people walked by on the paved trail behind us.

Love the zip line! Small beach and great spots foe fishing! I saw an angler catch a 3 pink salmons in less than 10 minutes! Plenty of fish to catch. There is also a bathroom and lots of shade. Walk a little bit further and there is a bridge...great for photos!

Very nice, family friendly park along the Green River. Well maintained and the zip line was great! It's also an easy walk to take your dog. Highly recommend walking the suspension bridge over the river.

★★★★★ — Joseph , Jun 2025

It’s a nice of busy. Park has two zip blinds. Good amount of parking, but it was quite full. There was parking on the street as well. Lots of families. Lots of tables. I just didn’t know the existed. Grim is in the backside. Some people were going in the water..

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.
