Review

This is a fun trail with some different options. We started at Tanyard Creek park and took a right to run to the end of the current Beltline trail. You run along the creek and over a bridge and it feels like you're far outside the city. The train tracks go over the trail and you get to run under them on a beautiful boardwalk bridge. 

Once you pass the parking lot again, you continue running along the creek toward the golf course. The Beltline ends at the edge of the golf course, so you can take a right on Woodward and loop around back to the Beltline. While this will be an even more exciting run once the Beltline is complete, it is still a lovely run along the creek. You can even run (or walk) up the stairs for a lovely stroll around the garden at Spring Valley Park.
