Wanting to use a multi-surface trail? The Grant Wood Trail provides users with sections that are paved, have crushed limestone, and even a runners path. The Grant Wood Trail spans approximately 8.5 miles across five sections in Linn and Jones Counties with the gaps to be filled in the future. The trail is paved from west of 31st Street in Marion to Waldo’s Rock Park with a paving gap near Highway 13. From Waldo’s Park to the east, the trail surface is crushed limestone. There is another gap along Secrist Road from Oxley Road to Creekside Road. The trail continues east along Simmons Creek to Springville Road where there is a gap east to Alderman Road. The trail continues east to about 500 feet west of Linn Jones Road near Martelle. The trail picks back up in Martelle on South Street through town and continues west to 230th Avenue. The final section in Jones County runs from Highland Street to Resident Street.
