POFQ Running Trails?

[Disneymoon]

My DH is an avid runner and wanted me to ask about the availability of running trails or places to go running at POFQ. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

My DH and I both run. We loved staying at Riverside and running on the asphalt pedestrian trail (along the river) to FQ. Nice loop. I usually run for about 30 minutes-- can't remember if I'd go around once or twice, but it was something like that. Nice to finish up by getting some beignets (terrible spelling) at FQ, too.

Have fun and try those surrey bikes too-- our kids loved them.

Thank you so much

I'm looking at a map of entire PO resort right now and they have a jogging/biking trail marked right on it. It's 1 mile round trip from the far end of POFQ to the marina at POR following the river. It's a .7 mile loop if you follow the pedestrian loop at POR. You can see a PDF of the resort at www.wdwinfo.com under Resorts.

agree with previous poster...nice place to run. Hard to get tons of distance in with a one mile loop, but it's very pleasant.

The two Port Orleans resorts are some of the best for runners. The easy choice is the nice wide paved path between the two resorts, but there is much more.

There are several bridges you can cross over when you get down to POR. The sidewalks are nice and wide in the mansions section. When you get down to the AB area the paths seem more narrow and winding, but they are still fine for jogging if there is not too much other pedestrian traffic. I would even feel safe jogging around the perimeter road at POR if you need to get in a long run, but it would not be quite as scenic as running through the resorts.
