Confirmed from Mirabeau Springs' 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.
Waterfalls, ponds and hiking trails are the focus here, along with wildlife like turtles and ducks.
What runners say about Mirabeau Springs
“Small cozy have so many spots for a picnic, a good trail to walk and a beautiful small waterfall and also have parking in near.”
So much to see! The waterfall is beautiful and easy to access, plus plenty of walking trails. Small and big dog friendly🐕!
The artificial waterfall is nice if you want a nice little scenic spot. It's also right next to the Spokane River.
Love this whole vicinity!! Great for hiking/walking. We go rock hunting here and hide rocks here as well. Always beautiful. Lots of bunnies, snakes, turtles, lizards etc. Beautiful waterfall as well with a chill area.
It's mid October and the waterfall is back! The first time I ever came to Mirabeau, it was dry, but I loved the views of the river, hiking trails, and abundant parking, and kept coming back!
