Parking for the South Riverside Trail at its western terminus is available at the Cedar Falls Recreation Center off E. 13th St. just east of Main St. Continuing east along the trail, you can also park at Veterans Memorial Park (E. 14th Court at Bluff St.), Pfieffer Springs Park off Grand Blvd. and at Park Drive. Access to the trail is available from the Cedar Valley Lakes Trail and from the Greenhill Trail.
This is a beautiful section of trail for walking, running, biking. It is one of my favorite trails to ride when in Iowa. Rather flat paved path that runs along the river, and tree covered for a shady ride on warmer days.
The trail is 5 miles in lenth. Not "50." Typo. Beautiful trail. Shady, mostly flat and part of one of the most popular trail loops in the Cedar Valley Trail system consisting of 80 miles of trails and growing.
