Meredith Trail

Meredith Trail is a 5.2-mile trail that connects downtown Des Moines to Gray's Lake Park. It was named Meredith Trail in honor of Ted Meredith, a dedicated conservationist and also former Chairman of the Board for Meredith Corporation. The trail starts where the Principal Riverwalk leaves off along the Des Moines River and ends on the southeast side of Gray's Lake Park.

If you're starting at Gray's Lake Park you can park in the lot at 2102 Fleur Drive.
