Percy Warner Park is Nashville's toughest classic: an 11.2-mile paved loop through the forest, with long climbs, stone walls and the famous stone steps at the entrance.

The route

  • Distance: 11.2 miles for the full loop.
  • Terrain: paved park road, very hilly.
  • Shorter options: the park has shorter loops if you are building up.

Tips

  • Run facing traffic and wear bright colors.
  • Bring water and fuel for the full loop.
  • The stone steps at Belle Meade Blvd are a great warm-up spot.
