Runner Notes

Perfect trail for a 5k or 10k loop depending on where one starts and if you make a loop of the south end as a loop or double back to the starting point.

Description

This trail is the most heavily used path in Buena Vista. It's wide, closed to all but maintenance vehicles, and very level. Many residents run it daily or bring their dogs to run along the river. There is parking where the path crosses 10th Street and where the path meets 21st St. Also, many people use the trail to access the river for trout fishing.

Flora & Fauna

Deer, groundhogs, and Canadian geese are almost always present, if not always visible. Foxes, egrets, Bald Eagles, osprey are often seasonally visible. Many people access the adjacent river from the trail for trout fishing. The Maury River is stocked for sport trout (although not directly stocked in this location).
