Confirmed from Memorial Park- Brushy Creek'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.

👟 good for all levels 2 mentions

“This park can be enjoyed by all ages, accessibility issues, and is even pet friendly.”

I was very impressed with the scenery at this park. Although it's still finishing some features, the trail is 2 miles on a very scenic path along Brushy Creek. The picnic tables along the creek are great spots for a lunch break.

This is a beautiful park that has very good trail. I hiked here a couple of times and it never disappoints. The trail is pretty even really good for beginners. The view is amazing and you can do other things there too like fishing.

★★★★★ — Rollyn , Oct 2025

My dog loves everything about this place. So many places to walk and little places to get close to the creek. Most of the time the creek is dried up between Chisholm Trail and 35, and you can walk on the rocks.

★★★★★ — Matt , Jan 2026

Awesome piece of history in Round Rock. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because as of March of 23, there is a lot of construction. It does look like it will be even nicer when they are done. I enjoyed being able to walk in and touch history.

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.
