Confirmed from Zanesville 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.

What runners say about Zanesville Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (24 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Grass was cut. Softball games to watch, walking trail, river to fish. Love this place

★★★★★ — Josh , May 2019

Great place to walk and ride bikes in addition to the soccer, softball, pickleball courts, dog park, kids playground, picnic shelter, and boat ramp. Always well keep and the scenery is great being along the Muskingum River.

★★★★★ — Casey , Feb 2026
