Auburn Research Park is pleased to introduce a group of named walking/running paths along with related events and programming called Paths at The Park. Our goal is to encourage members of The Park community to take full advantage of our beautiful setting and for people to get out there, get moving, and get to know each other.

Each path starts and ends in front of the Research and Innovation Center at 540 Devall Drive. The first path, Nova, is a short one. At .5 miles, it's ideal for a quick break in the work day. Begin in front of the Research and Innovation Center, follow Devall Drive to our College Street entrance and return.

The second path, Venture, is 1 mile and takes users past the Auburn Medical Pavilion. Begin at the Research and Innovation Center, follow Devall Drive to Camp Auburn Road. Take a right on Camp Auburn Road and follow it through the new roundabout to our entrance off of Shug Jordan and return.

The third path, Quest, is 1.5 miles and takes users in a large loop utilizing Old Camp Auburn Road. Begin at the Research and Innovation Center, follow Devall Drive to Camp Auburn Road. Take a right on Camp Auburn Road and follow it to our the roundabout. At the roundabout, take a right onto Old Camp Auburn Road. Old Camp Auburn Road is a dirt road winding through the campus forest and emerging onto Woodfield Drive near the Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) pond and walking trail. If you would like to add an additional .26 miles to your walk, take a quick loop around the VCOM trail before taking a right on Woodfield. Follow Woodfield to Donahue Drive. Take a right on Donahue for a short walk to the entrance to The Park at Devall Drive. Take a right on Devall and return to the Research and Innovation Center. Keep in mind that while Old Camp Auburn Road is absolutely drivable, it is dirt and takes you through wooded areas that are home to local wildlife (like snakes). So, keep your eyes peeled and have fun!
