Much of Pleasant Run flows with the stream and the stately roadway of the same name; in other places, the trail seeks the most natural passage through neighborhood boundaries, using the same sidewalks as residents. The trail meanders along Pleasant Run Creek offering a paved route for walking, bicycling, rollerblading. The Pleasant Run Trail connects recreation facilities such as the Kin Hubbard Memorial and Garfield Park & Conservatory. All three parks have loop trails that provide an additional two miles of trail.
