Confirmed from Memorial Park Green Ridge Trail'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.
What runners say about Memorial Park Green Ridge Trail
Very nice trail… not sure if it looops around - that’s what we thought. A little confusing if you aren’t following trail maps. The trail head is right at the entrance of the picnic area loop . Smaller walk path since there are Lots of bikers on this trail so you are always having to stop and make way-
My husband and I hiked this trail a few times and enjoyed it each time! It’s relatively easy but the route is well maintained and it created the forest or wooded feeling even though we’re right in the city.
Perfect city hike. After about 20 minutes from the trailhead the drone of Memorial Drive fades and you forget you’re in the city.
