Confirmed from Tierra Williamsburg Hiking - Biking Trail'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.

★★★★★ — Josh , Dec 2024

I parked over by Target on 40th and Yankee Hill. It was only like 3 blocks to the trail. I did 8.47 miles out and back. Took me 2 hrs 25 mins. Very nice wide paved trail. I took it from where it starts or ends to the Rock Island Trail.

★★★★★ — Jerry , Sep 2024

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.
