The start point is Greenwood Park Open Shelter #2, 80 45th St. near the splash pad and playground.


For this sanctioned walk, the start table is open from 10:30 AM to Noon. Finish by 2:00 PM.

There is a 5K and a 10K route (2B rating). Both start from the shelter and follow the park road to the Bill Riley Trail, which leads into Waterworks Park. These are out-and-back routes. The map and instructions will indicate the turnaround points for both routes.


From I-234, take the 42nd St. exit south to Grand Ave. Turn right on Grand, then left on 45th. You'll pass several homes on the left and the Sylvan Outdoor Theater on the right. Turn left at the road with the directional sign and drive up the hill to the parking area for two shelters. The start point is the open shelter to the left.
