Confirmed from Shelby Farms Park Greenline'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.

🌳 shaded & cool 5 mentions

“Wonderful paved bike trail with plenty of shade.”

Probably one of the most delightful hidden gems in all of Blues Town. We've ridden this trail a couple of times from each end, and it is not only well maintained, but an excellent option to be able to be outdoors while mostly shaded from Memphis summer sun.

★★★★☆ — Keith , Aug 2021

Enjoyable walking and bicycle path. A scape from the scorching heat in summer time. Most of the path in the shade. The tarmac of the path is in perfect condition even for going with your baby’s stroller.

★★★★★ — Roberto , Aug 2024

It can get very busy but it is a great trail to run, walk, cycle and skate on. Away from cars and very shaded for hot days.

★★★★★ — Bill , Aug 2020

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.
