Confirmed from Pfiffner Pioneer 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.
Riverside park featuring the Pfiffner Building, a paved path, a bandshell, a gazebo & more.

Just as I remember it, every time I visit, even with several years in between. Love that the magic of the nature along the river continues to be preserved and maintained and enjoyed by people. Love the natural wildflowers as you walk towards the boat landing.
A beautiful park along the Wisconsin River near Downtown Stevens Point. It has art, a long bike path, a new (2020 built) playground, rentable public buildings for group events, and historic markers.
This park was close to my parents in laws house so they took me and my family. I didn't expect that much before I get here but this place really blew my mind. There is an art gallery and a garden right across of it. The flower garden was my favorite part of this park. It was fabulous!
It was a beautiful day here on Saturday, very peaceful and pretty. We'll visit often, I'm sure. ***Update*** This is a beautiful, peaceful park with a lake, bands, food trucks... beautiful wildlife, butterflies, bike trails..... very relaxing.
