Confirmed from Miller Spring Park'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.
Scenic outdoor space for hiking and fishing, plus kayaking and picnics.
What runners say about Miller Spring Park
“A very beautiful place to hold a small wedding ceremony.”
“Well marked trails, my dogs and I went through several different ones.”
“Miller Spring Park , is located in Belton just below the dam, As the park is a nice place for family gatherings and peaceful walks.”
I love this park. Not going to lie. I have got lost in here with my dog twice. The colored arrows could be better. You go on a 2-mile hike so you think. 10 miles later you find your way out feeling like you are at death's door. I can't be the only one that had this experience. But great place overall. My dogs love it.
This place is a beautifully preserved natural landscape with great hiking trails and plenty of flora and fauna to enjoy. The wildflowers in the spring are an impressive example of the complexity of creation and the genius of our Creator.
Our favorite place to Kayak! Good place to fish. We have seen trails but haven't done any hiking.
You will love it here. Take crawfish bait if you go 🎣 fishing. There is Big fish. You can see them and they can see you! There's turtles. If you got boys man they are going to love it! By picnic tables. There's a trail that needs some trimming some weeds stick out.
