Confirmed from Red Arrow 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.

“Good park for families with children of all ages.”

I was there during the Sand Sculpturing competition. It was really well done, well organized with skilled sculpturers. It was wonderful what they could create with wet sand! It was crowded and difficult to move along the path between the sculpters, though. Maybe spread out more in a single line next year if possible?

A little gem in manitowoc. Awesome park and lovely beach area for all ages. Paved Bike and walking trails. Plenty of room for picnics and get togethers. Large parking lot. Public bathrooms open in summer. Located right next to Lates dinner and Cedar Crest ice cream shop.

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.
