"Good trail if you want to run a paved path. Nice shade provides relief from the sun in the summer."

"Loved going here ! I was visiting the area and went here a lot for some out door exercise. The hiking trail is mild level, great for a nice relaxing day. Also great place to go for a run on the paved trail. Really enjoyed this place !"

"If you're up for an adventure, take the 9 mile kayaking trip down Ghost River! From wide open lake areas to winding down little canals and weaving around trees, this was such a blast! Our guide was really really nice and very informative too from start to finish. If in TN definitely check this out."

"This is a very beautiful and scenic Greenway. It is well landscaped, and the trails follow closely by the Wolf River. I have seen an owl, a rabbit, butterflies, wildflowers, and Blue Herons. This is one of my favorite places in Memphis to hike."

"The most scenic, and shaded of Shelby countys many beautiful green lines. Ideal for joggers or cyclist. The gem of East Memphis."
