Confirmed from Riverwalk Park Dam'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.
What runners say about Riverwalk Park Dam
“What it lacks in size it makes up for in beauty with a nice wide spillway and a picturesque rocky bluff on the far side of the Duck River.”
“There's a walking trail that follows the Duck, but if you just want a second of peaceful views and sounds, this is a great free stop.”
Columbia is becoming quite a trendy place in the recent years. Downtown has lots of nice stores, restaurants and even its own vinyl record shop and Muletown coffee house! Once you are down enjoying coffee downtown walk or drive over to the Riverwalk Park. Beautiful promenade along the Duck river.
An awesome place to just go and walk , good place to do some fishing ,just about every kind of species of fish you can think of in the water love this area also a lot of nice people here a really good place to come relax rest a little bit or just sit in your car and eat lunch
Gorgeous view of falling water. There's a walking trail that follows the Duck, but if you just want a second of peaceful views and sounds, this is a great free stop.
Walk my dog there a lot. Not crowded usually. Paved wide sidewalks. Lots of grass. Right next to Duck River.

“There's also no restrooms except for in the main part of the park which is a bit of a walk from the dam area, so you're better off driving to them if you're in need of one.”
