Confirmed from Mandan 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.

“Lots of trails and some scenic views .”

Very flowy trails for your Onewheel or Mountain bike. Get your stoke on!! 🤙

★★★★★ — Glenn , Dec 2023

Whoever built the trails here, you are the hero(s) we didn't know we deserved. These are some of the best trails I have ever found in the midwest, they flow extremely well, they are fun, fast, and challenging. Everything you want from trail riding and only a short trip from my house. Five stars aren't enough.

★★★★★ — Ollie , Apr 2024

As a mountain biker, the newly installed professionally built trails are an excellent addition to this park. The trails are amazing to ride and draw both locals and out of town folks to enjoy nature and meet up with other riders. As the park gets more use, the area also gets more friendly.

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.
