We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Lower Booker Creek Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Lower Booker Creek Trail
Beautiful trail adjacent to residential neighborhoods. Both open and between canopy of trees, and creeks. The Cedar Falls trail is not too far along this route and combining both gives one a solid walking experience with a little bit of climbing in Cedar Falls.
Pretty good walking trail. Good distance and peaceful environment. Overall great scenery.
Love this local path. It’s a nice winding paved path next to the small Booker Creek and is a connector between the local neighborhood and the close by shops at Eastgate Mall.
