Confirmed from Tussing Park'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.

🌾 quiet & peaceful 3 mentions

“Very beautiful and peaceful, a good walking trail around the whole park (some river spots) as well as wildlife lookouts.”

Parking lot "park" has some tents but as you walk through what seems to be a Neverending park, it is the most beautifully kept park I have ever been to! Views to die for as well! Easily a 5/5 stars

Beautiful riverfront park with small picnic area that connects to Reinhart Volunteer Park via a beautiful pedestrian bridge over the Rogue river. If you are on the south side of the Rogue in Grants Pass, this is a way to cross the river and get a decent walk in through two parks or just enjoy a pleasant riverfront…

Very beautiful and peaceful, a good walking trail around the whole park (some river spots) as well as wildlife lookouts. Kid playground and baseball field, We let our little one run around gated baseball field being as it was grassy and gated lol. Be warned Don't feed the wildlife tho.

★★★★★ — Tori , Apr 2019

Wow...one of my new favorite parks in the Southern Valley's. The river runs through it and there are several unique green spaces as well as a very cool bridge to highlight the walking path. And if your lucky there will be plenty of geese and ducks to entertain.

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.
