Confirmed from Second Creek Open Space'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 Second Creek Open Space
Well maintained. Most people pick up there dog waste. Tough for city to keep up with the Prairie dog holes on the trail, but they do a good job.
