Confirmed from Luther Warren Peace Path'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 Luther Warren Peace Path

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (20 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

🌳 shaded & cool 4 mentions

“Mostly flat, pretty shaded and quiet.”

**UPDATE** I have yet been able to post about the new extension of the Luther Warren Peace path which is called ELIZABETH J LOONEY MEMORIAL PATH. If you park in the lot off the Nelson entrance, the new path entrance is right across the street. However, be aware, it is approximately 7 miles round trip.

★★★★★ — Trish , Aug 2025

Kinda of a hidden trail. Not alot of traffic. Access from the back of the hospital parking lot. Quiet and pretty

★★★★★ — Broken , May 2022

Took one star off just because the trail entrance is right next to the landfill AND sewage treatment plant. There’s a giant open-air vat of sewage being treated within eyesight of the trail entrance.

★★★★☆ — Beth , Oct 2024

Great place to be anytime of the year. So that you can walk and get healthy.

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.
