Confirmed from Man O War Trailhead'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.

“It provides a great view and most people can do it in under an hour”

Great trail for biking, jogging, roller blading etc. Stays right next to the river and has stops for working out.

★★★★★ — April , Apr 2017

Easy walking trail that takes you by the river. There are various markers along the way that tell you the history and about the eco system. They also have a really nice area where you can add tire to your bikes and do basic repairs. Great for a stroll or a day with the kids.

★★★★★ — Rachel , Apr 2020

What a great trail system. We biked all the way along the river and around the bluff. Will definitely do that again if we come to stay in St George again.

★★★★★ — Jim , Jan 2026

Paved trail. Watch out for bikers. Speed limit is 20mph, but they really come at ya fast.

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.
