Ben Geren Fitness Course - Ben Geren Park
The Ben Geren Fitness Course, located in the center of Fort Smith’s Ben Geren Park, is a loop walking trail with a variety of “fitness stations” (e.g., parallel bars) to help you stay in shape.
At 1.5 miles, the trail is a nice length for an urban park walking trail.

Recently, quite a few trees were planted along the trail. They will be especially nice once they are tall enough to provide shade for walkers. Until then, it can be pretty warm walking the trail on a sunny day.

The trail has almost no elevation change and has a shale rock surface. It is a pretty easy walk.
As usual, I have posted some of my photos and a gpx map made from my gps data.
