Confirmed from Lewis & Clark Landing at The RiverFront'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.
Large riverfront plaza featuring Lewis & Clark exhibits plus a trail & marina.
What runners say about Lewis & Clark Landing at The RiverFront
“It’s kept very clean and there is a rink that you can also rent roller skates or in winter ice skates from what I was told.”
“Great view of the river and awesomely educational monuments.”
Really amazing spot down town . Big open area and it’s not all the same things to look at . Lots to look at and lots of open space . It’s a really great spot to take your kids as they do have a playground too!
This park & monuments were much cooler than I ever could have imagined. So many near features to appeal to kids as well as adults that you can't just find at any old basic park. We easily spent an hour here but could definitely have spent more time if it was a warmer season and the water play features were running.
This area is clean, safe and an excellent place to take long walks. There are also many places for kids, a dog park, roller skating rink, hammocks, fire pits with chairs, other sitting areas. Just a great place to walk around and / or relax!
Absolutely beautiful. There are tons of spots to get great photos. It's a great place for the family to just get out. If you have family or friends visiting, it's a nice walk with restaurants and activities nearby.
