About Town Run Trail Park

Town Run Trail Park is a natural resource park on Indianapolis's north side, owned by Indy Parks and Recreation. Its main draw is a singletrack mountain bike course with beginner and intermediate terrain, maintained by volunteers from the Hoosier Mountain Bike Association. The park also serves trail runners, hikers, and anglers. The park is currently closed because of flood and erosion damage, and its gates may be shut at other times to protect the trail.
