Rice Running Trail is located along
the perimeter of its eponymous campus,
the 2.92 mile Rice University Loop offers
locals a sheltered stride along the outskirts
of the evergreen Museum District and
nearby Medical Center.
Guests can hit the crushed gravel and
dirt track for a safe stroll through the
residential neighborhood complete with
scenic views of ivy-covered homes, bustling
students rushing to and from class, striking
public art worth pondering, and of course,
plenty of other runners to navigate around.
Visitors can enjoy free parking in the
neighborhoods surrounding Rice, but be
sure to double-check the street signs to be
certain you won't get towed.
