Confirmed from Moses Creek 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.

“Gorgeous section of the green circle trail!”

Another great section of the Green Circle Trail! It starts off kind of weak, mostly just walking down the street, but once it gets back into nature it really takes off! Absolutely beautiful! The path is wide and clear. The boardwalk nicely done. Wildlife abounds. And the trees and flowers are wonderful.

★★★★★ — Nathan , Jun 2020

Beautiful walking trail. Well maintained. Really enjoyed the nature! Little busy for biking however it is intended for bikes.

★★★★☆ — Meagen , Aug 2021

This branch of the Green Circle Trail is so peaceful and serene. I could spend the entire day just walking these trails.

★★★★★ — Rebecca , Oct 2023

Beautiful trail part of the Green circle. Recommend starting from the entrance on Wilshire Drive, there's a small parking lot on the entrance. Lots of picture opportunities throughout the trail. Be careful for bike riders.

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.
