April 2, 2021Muddy and impassable 3 days after rain
March 31, 2021The green trail was a flooded mess. Ankle deep water and mud in places.
March 20, 2021March 20, 2021very muddy but passable.
March 9, 2021February 7, 2021Cold but footing was firm
January 30, 2021January 23, 2021It’s mileage. The resivoire was pretty, and the high way was noisy. Some elevation changes but mostly flat. Plenty of people, even when the high was 30.
November 20, 2020Sure does beat working!
November 16, 2020November 8, 2020Fabulous day and scenery!
October 13, 2020This is (I think) the widest loop one can take in Eagle Creek
January 12, 2020Nice flat trail but had to turn around and jump on the orange due to some flooded areas. Made some makeshift bridges but that only got us so far. Will be coming back to check it out when it hasn’t rained.
January 4, 2020If there’s been precipitation recently, plan on areas with standing water that will be difficult to navigate without getting your feet wet. While this is not the most scenic route Eagle Creek has to offer, it is very flat. Portions run close to the interstate so it can be noisy. Overall, the areas in the woods are nice for a fast, flat run (or hike), but the portions between the wooded areas can be uneven because of the cycle of moisture to mud to dry.
October 2, 2019starting training on this trail because I will be racing it on February 22. 2020. I'm a beginner to running... and I need to get my 4hr time down to an hour and a half. but this trail pushed me to my limits.....
May 19, 2019Trails are an absolute mess right now. Might as well just call them a swamp currently.
October 4, 2018Michael and I went hiking today. We started on the Green Trail but what we didn’t anticipate was how buggy it would be due to the rain we received Wednesday night. The first mile and a half was pretty miserable because of all the mosquitos and we wended up having to leave the trail and walk on the road because the bugs were so bad. While this was disappointing, it taught us an important lesson - that you can’t foresee everything you might encounter on the trail and you might need to think on your feet. Because we were on pavement the hike ended up being more about talking and keeping a steady pace, so I still count it as a successful day!

First to ReviewPortions of green trail share the same footprint as orange trail on the south and blue trail on the north. The north-south leg of the trail are within a few yards of I-465 and I-65. Very noisy and not to picturesque along that portion. Appears to be a good cross country skiing trail due to it being a flat trail. Someone has used it for that as there were ski tracks in the snow. Highlight of the hike, spotted a big buck crossing the trail. However, I was to slow to get a picture.
