January 2, 2021Great ride
November 13, 2020It was easy to find where the trails is but it was hard and confusing to where it goes
October 22, 2020This is an easy, scenic walk parallel to the Red River. I usually park at the Stoner St. parking lot and walk to downtown Shreveport. This is 4 miles in and out.
October 12, 2020we biked end to end and the whole family enjoyed it (kids 4-8) youngest was on a tag along but it was easy enough everyone else rode themselves. The south end does not have shade so we felt the 88deg sunshine and there is still on spot that was washed out that you have to go around. Otherwise, it was a great afternoon ride.
August 28, 2020July 25, 2020great ride, grassy trail around the wash out spot. beautiful views. some gravel patches. don't swallow a dragonfly.
June 13, 2020Very good paved walking path. From River Park to Hamel Park is over 5 miles, marked off every quarter mile. Trail has washed out just south of the railroad overpass between I-20 and Stoner Skate Park. Trail also floods about a mile south of the Skate Park parking lot. North end is under good shade for much of the day; southern end can put you out in the sun for long stretches. Another trail from a parking lot off of Stoner to the west side of Clyde Fant northward to the railroad tracks is also a fun, comfortable one-mile jaunt.
June 9, 2020Nice, well marked trail, although the pavement is a bit bumpy and a few spots were washed out. As noted, it is lightly trafficked and perfect when you don’t want to dodge children and dogs.
September 6, 2019July 28, 2018Parked at the Eldorado Casino Shreveport and rode South along Red River to where the paved trail ends.
May 25, 2018This was my first and my go to place to walk. Love it! Very comfortable
April 3, 2018Trail starts downtown Shreveport and ends at a loop just passed Shreveport dog park at Stoner Avenue Boat Launch
October 4, 2016This isn't the most interesting trail but for a walk in the city it's nice. I've done this a few times with my two kids and we enjoyed it.
January 1, 2016Its a great place but its partly washed out from the river.
August 19, 2015Paved flat path for running,walking, or a nice bike ride along the river

First to ReviewThis trail is a fully paved very easy trail. It's great for walking, jogging, or riding a bike. There are trees on one side and a road on the other. The Red River can be seen from some parts of the trail which is nice. This is not a forest or wilderness trail. It's very enjoyable for a casual stroll.
