Confirmed from Lincoln Memorial Hospital Wellness Trail'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 Lincoln Memorial Hospital Wellness Trail

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.

Great place to stop and walk. It's open to the public for free. Three laps around the trail equals one mile.

★★★★★ — Deann , Feb 2024

Very nice path around the small lake/pond. We'll maintained concrete path and mowed grass. 3 laps to a mile around the lake.
