West Des Moines plans marathon loop trail across city

The planned 26.2-mile loop would connect the city's existing trails and parks.

West Des Moines city staff want to create a 26.2-mile loop connecting the city&#x27;s existing trails and parks.Why it matters: Running out-and-back can get boring, but a set loop gives outdoor enthusiasts a path to follow and marathon trainers a more interesting training route.Driving the news: West Des Moines Parks and Rec is requesting around $5 million from the city&#x27;s upcoming fiscal budget to fund 15 projects, including several trail connections to complete the Marathon Loop.<h2 class="text-h6 !font-sans !font-normal !leading-[1.2em]">Raccoon River East Greenway</h2><figure><img alt="A red line showing a proposed trail from the 1st street rec area, diagnol left into the raccoon river park" height="846" id="769ad0fd-1f45-437c-80f8-9f1be571a439" src="https://images.axios.com/uL8MoSii1gOIDL733V57sOygVPk=/2026/03/20/1774037568115.png" width="1032"/><figcaption>The proposed Raccoon River East Greenway Trail.
