In the eastern part of Green Bay, one can put together a quite pleasant run around the paths of the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay campus and the adjacent Coflin Arboretum. Circle Drive makes a loop around the campus (not great for running — no sidewalk). Inside Circle Dr. are pleasant pedestrian paths around the campus, while the Arboretum trails are just outside Circle Dr. Another highlight is the Shorewood Cross Country Course, originally a 9-hole golf course that was repurposed as a running course in 2022! Fun woods and rolling hills. It’s off N Circle Dr., just north of the Weidner parking lot.
Another highlight is the Coflin Arboretum, which surrounds the UWGB Campus with 300 acres of forests, prairies, ponds, and creeks. There are 6 miles of trails, mainly on a bark surface. The trails are generally on the east, south, and west sides of Circle Drive. TRAIL MAPUnfortunately, the surrounding waterfront roads, Nicolet Dr. & East Shore Dr. lack a sidewalk and have narrow shoulders.
Essentials
- Arboretum features 6 miles of trails
- On campus or one of the Arborerum sections
