Confirmed from Lincoln Drive 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 park 👍 activities like a maniac, you just need to be active! They have a sidewalk wide enough to put two wheel chairs side by side. It's a long trail that's a good view of the river!

Beautiful park along the river.It’s a long trail that’s a good view of the river!Good place to get some fresh air during covid 😂

★★★★★ — Gopika , Mar 2021

Clean restrooms, love the playground features, though the little rocks love to get into shoes, the material is good on the playground. The shelters all are nice too. The new game area with Connect 4, horseshoe pits, and other games in partially fenced in to protect the cars going by. The FROLF course is huge!

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.

🐕 Dog-friendly 25 mentions

“There is a dog park with area for large dogs and area for small dogs (can't comment further - not a dog owner).”
