Confirmed from Mill Creek Trailway'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 Mill Creek Trailway
“Most of the time you will see beautiful creatures early in the morning like deers, turkeys snakes, lynx and others.”
Took our new e-bikes last week. Started at Shelter 1 and went north to Nelson Island before coming back and heading south. The trail is beautiful, lots of woods, some bridges and parks. The only challenge for a couple of novice riders is the high single sidewalk bridge that arches over the railroad tracks.
Repairs on the Gary L Haller trail between K-10 bridge and College Blvd area have made the area by the Garmin Soccer Complex a very nice part of the trail. North of K-10 bridge is a temporary installation on GLH trail of some public art by Matthew Dehaemers. Summer 2024.
It's a great place for jogging, walking and running in the outdoors. Most of the time you will see beautiful creatures early in the morning like deers, turkeys snakes, lynx and others.
