We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Avery Road Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about Avery Road Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (5 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Nice place to hike. People bring dogs, horse, ATVs, Jeeps, etc. Small parking area but free. Trails circle a lake and go on for miles.

Best kept secret in the area, bar none! Beautiful views of the pond, easy trails to follow. Use the AllTrails app so as not to get lost in here, as it is easy the further you venture. I prefer the views around the pond best.

★★★★★ — Laura , Apr 2022

Great trail. Would be great for kids. Nice stream for the dog to play in.

★★★★★ — Beth , Apr 2022

A lovely quiet trail right next to a Sniffspot for rent. Highly recommend both.
