The Martin Luther King Jr Trailway tears off from the Meredith Trail and heads west along the MLK Jr Parkway in Des Moines, Iowa. The Meredith circles back and meets the MLK Jr trail at SE 15th Street. The trail is accessible from the nearby residential communities. It is paved and gently graded, and open to non-motorized use.
If coming from the Meredith trail, you could park at Gray’s Lake Park (2101 Fleur Drive) and connect to the MLK Jr Trail at MLK Jr Parkway and SW 16th Street.
