contents In a recent article PRD 111, 064001 (2025) a new geometric a approach for studying massive particle surfaces was proposed. Using the Gaussian and geodesic curvatures of a two dimensional Riemannian metric a criteria for the existence of massive particle surfaces was provided. In this work we generalize these results by including stationary spacetime metrics. We surmount the difficulty of having a Jacobi metric of the Randers-Finsler type by using a $2$-dimensional Riemannian metric that is obtained by projecting the spacetime metric over the directions of its Killing vectors. We provide a condition for the existence of massive particle surfaces and a simple characterization for null and timelike trajectories only by using intrinsic curvatures of that $2$-dimensional Riemannian surface. We study the massive particle surfaces of spacetimes that are not an asymptotically flat. We show that the Riemannian formalism can be used to study the shadows of the associated black holes. We show the existence of massive particle surfaces for the Kerr metric, the Kerr-(A)dS metric and for a solution of the Einsten-Maxwell-dilaton theory.
