Confirmed from Langus Riverfront 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.
Waterfront spot with a 3-mile trail, a boat launch & fishing pier, plus bird-watching opportunities.

Trail is accessible and wide, well-paved. I run here and often have friendly people say hi, tell me "good job", and smile. It's slow this time of year in the late mornings when I go, so I usually have the path to myself for 10 minutes at a time.
