Confirmed from Willamette River greenway trail,Bolton Creek.'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 Willamette River greenway trail,Bolton Creek.

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (10 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

We love this trail, that goes through Maddax Woods. A easy trail that connects to other trails. Picnic tables and benches. Wonderful river access and views. Easy parking with a small lot.

★★★★★ — Iris , Feb 2020

Great short hike beside the river. Ends at a small beach. Dogs loved it.
