Tuscaloosa Riverwalk spans the length of the Black Warrior River’s southern banks throughout Tuscaloosa’s downtown region, offering a paved trail that is open for walking, running, and bicycle use.

The two-way path stretches approximately 4.5 miles throughout the city, beginning at Capitol Park and ending on the eastern side of Manderson Landing. Park areas are showcased throughout the trail, offering dog-friendly exercise areas for pets and owners, and benches and gazebos sprinkled throughout the route allow for day-use picnic sites. A playground is offered along the trail near the city’s public library, along with a splash pad located at the Bama Bell dock. Parking for the trail is available at the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater.
