Confirmed from Roger Presley Trail and Garden'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 Roger Presley Trail and Garden
“Trail is very well maintained minus some erosion spots that could be a little hazardous to folks not paying close attention.”
“Trail is nicely groomed and mulched overlooking the Great Miami River, with beautiful trees and edged on the south side by the Freeman Prarie.”
We love this trail. We run it a few times a week with our dog and it’s perfect.. shaded nearly the entire way, well-maintained and love the markers to indicate how far you’ve gone. Tipp needed a wooded trail and Roger has gone above and beyond with what he has given our community!
Wow! This place is beautiful and the home is great. We clocked about 3.6 miles. It’s an out and back. Not really wheelchair or stroller accessible for all of it. There aren’t any facilities. This is super easy to find and we were lucky enough to get to see and chat with Mr. Presley.
I had the pleasure of meeting Roger personally and it was a great experience! Stop out and enjoy a bike or a walk on the mile long trail he has worked so hard to build!
Trail is nicely groomed and mulched overlooking the Great Miami River, with beautiful trees and edged on the south side by the Freeman Prarie. Keep an eye out for Roger working in the garden area or on trail upkeep and say Hi if you see him.
