It's always fun running below this railroad trestle ~ even more so when there is a train rattling by overhead. |
Date run: many times
Distance: 3.5 Miles, out and back
Pros: Soft trail, intermittently bare, covered with wood chips, or covered with gravel. During the fall, leaves blanket the trail. The trail follows the Willamette River, on the opposite side of the river from the Bowman Park Trail. The trail is mostly shaded. A highlight includes running beneath a raised railroad trestle.
Cons: During the rainy (winter) season, the trail can flood and become unpassable.
Yellow (half) mile markers along the trail. |
Each 0.5 mile split is marked with a yellow trail marker, where someone has scratched out the decimal point on each post, and has changed the word 'MILES' to read 'MILFS'. Many of the markers have nothing written on them, but it's still nice to know that they mark half mile splits.
