A 'runseeing' tour of downtown Sacramento. The highlight is the run along Capitol Mall, with nice views of the Capitol. Other streets in the downtown area are pleasant for running -- tree-lined with nice homes. Also includes Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park.
Southside park is popular among Sacramento runners due to it’s central location, large pond, playground, trails, and public art.
Paved multi-use path that connects Downtown, Del Paso Heights, and Rio Linda over 10.6 miles. Combination of residential at the southern end, some historic neighborhoods, and more rural scenery alongside Dry Creek at the northern end.
The paved Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail follows the American River for 32 miles between Sacramento and Folsom Lake, featuring several riverfront parks. It's the anchor of running in the area. We've mapped the full trail and some good loop oprtions.
