WALKING/RUNNING ROUTES <top>

The Campaign for a Walkable West Bluff is promoting alternate modes of transportation throughout the West Bluff in the hopes of improving the health of individuals and the environment and the overall quality of life in our communities. 

The links below will take you to walking/running/cycling maps that traverse the West Bluff. Depending on your preferences and needs, some maps may be more suitable to you than others. Please explore them all. Happy Trails! 

Please run responsibly. Run with a buddy, don’t run after dark, be aware of your surroundings, and pay attention to traffic signals. You are running in an urban environment.
