Trails with Restrooms in Iowa

Iowa has 180 trails with restrooms in this directory, across 47 cities and towns — West Des Moines, Ankeny, Cedar Falls, Ames and 43 more. A toilet somewhere on the route, which is what makes a long run workable.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
