Confirmed from Manomin 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 9 mentions

“It's a beautiful park and nice trails right by the Mississippi.”

Manomin park is a little bit of heaven with curvy paths that wind around to spectacular views of our mighty Mississippi. Go see Banfil Center for the arts while you're there. Beautiful gardens if the center isn't open. The sounds of the city disappear in the park. Just be when you're there.

★★★★★ — Mary , Apr 2021

Lovely trails and easy access to the creek. Plenty of benches and tables to rest at!

It's a beautiful park and nice trails right by the Mississippi.. It's a great place to bring my dog to walk. It has a nice smaller lake to look out at on one of the trails.

★★★★★ — Chris , Jul 2023

Confluence of Rice Creek and Mississippi River. Good walking paths, next to Banfill building.

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.
