Confirmed from Tree Tree Tree'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.

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (37 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 3 mentions

“It's mostly clean but sometimes it gets run down by too many kids from local daycares in the early morning.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 5 mentions

“Quiet and prinstine park with open space to play and a pond with walking trails”

This is a good small park that is easy to walk to from my house. It's mostly clean but sometimes it gets run down by too many kids from local daycares in the early morning. If you bring your child, I suggest going in the afternoon or evening.

★★★★☆ — Kourtney , Jun 2017

I love walk the trail here. There is a park for my kid to play and a pond for them to 'visit' nature and see the birds while still 5 minute walk from my house.

★★★★★ — Nicole , Jul 2017

The park is behind our house. We love going for walks back there (our dog loves it, too), and snowshoeing in the winter. We also enjoy seeing all the wildlife. It's a real treasure for us and the city of Cottage Grove.

★★★★★ — Kathryn , Sep 2019

One of many greenway areas in Cottage Grove. Always peaceful and full of wildlife. Well maintained trails and easy access from the road.

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.
