Confirmed from Meeks Mountain Trails' 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.

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“It is so peaceful and extremely well maintained.”

I'm from out of state and visited this place based on reviews from Google and proximity to my campsite. It's a great place to go hiking. Plenty of trails to choose from. Beautiful scenery and recently placed artwork throughout the area. It's also right next to a local park.

★★★★★ — Daniel , Dec 2021

Absolutely a great place to hike. There’s 26 miles of hiking trails here! Fairly good scenery, lots of trails to choose from, very local so you don’t have to travel very far, also you can even camp out here.

★★★★★ — Andrew , Sep 2021

This trail system is absolutely amazing! Every trail is clearly marked and there is a huge map that shows the length of trails and funny descriptions about each one. If you are a beginner or on a casual dog walk, stay on the "city" trails. They are close to the park and very easy to navigate.

★★★★★ — David , Jun 2023

I love these trails! It is so peaceful and extremely well maintained. If you want to go for a mile walk or over a 20 mile run this trail is for you. From beginner to expert these trails are for anyone and everyone.

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.
