Confirmed from Yoholo Micco Rail 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.

The Fam and I have been biking/running/walking this trail for a long time..definitely a fantastic experience. Stopped by and Ran a little over 4 miles in the wee hours this AM on the way back home.. They now have a kiddo splash pad and playground area across the street. Great place for Family.

Absolutely LOVED visiting the trail. A client wanted me to come here to do a photoshoot. Me loving road trips said let's go! I had no idea it would be so stunning. I was in awe. I definitely want to come back one day. It was worth the drive!

Took an afternoon bike ride on this beautiful, paved trail. It is well maintained, peaceful and a fun ride. There are several stretching stations along the beginning part of the trail. Also a water fountain. Passed a few people walking, and on bikes. Cute eclectic features on the trail also views of Lake Eufaula.

★★★★★ — Lori , Aug 2024

The first mile of this trail was one of the most enjoyable trail walks I’ve ever been on. Well marked, meticulously maintained and clean, scenic with bluffs on one side and the river/lake on the other, cool little fitness stops along the way, a good mixture of direct sunlight and shade.

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.
