Confirmed from Meramec Greenway: Krumm Road Trailhead'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.

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“About 60% shaded during the summer.”

I frequent this trail weekly. The dog and I have found many paths . Because the park service is actively mowing trails and many times removing felled trees from the path. Thanks guys keep up the good work. Kudos to the moore guy and great job. So on another note. If you’re going to visit.

★★★★★ — Straydog , Jul 2021

Been here dozens of times. Not a huge parking lot - if this label is correctly placed - but instantaneous access to the Meramec Bottom trail here. Run/walk/hike/bike to the other end if you need a port-a-potty. Other end has a bigger parking lot, too.

★★★★★ — A-A-Ron , Feb 2022

It's a flat, easy to access, paved trail. It's nothing spectacular but it's a good place to take your daily walk for exercise.

★★★★★ — Olivia , Jun 2022

Beautiful, mostly flat, wide path for walking and riding with glimpses of the Meramec River.

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.
