Confirmed from Bay Farm Trails' own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. 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.
Park and farm featuring trails with ocean vistas along with a beach.
What runners say about Bay Farm Trails
“Was a beautiful trail except when we got to the end where it goes to a beach.”
“One of my favorite places for a quick easy walk with my dog!”
“One of my favorite places for a quick easy walk with my dog! I love that you get a little bit of everything in this park.”
As a dog walker, I take pups on hikes here all the time. It’s great! Especially for a quick swim. Everyone is very respectful with their dogs and trails are very peaceful. Highly recommend.
This is such a beautiful spot to bring your furbabies. The trails are well groomed and allow lots of space to run. I definitely recommend checking this spot out. It was very clean and they offer bags for your furbabies business.
Short walk up a small hill gives you a nice view of the bay and in the spring, I imagine, a ton of birds! Wear waterproof, sturdy shoes!
Very nice walk. Large parking lot which always has space. Depending on which trail you decide to take, you can take a shorter walk to the ocean or a longer walk through the woods. In late August there’s tons of beautiful wild flowers blooming. Recommend waterproof shoes/boots because the grass can be wet.

“Short walk up a small hill gives you a nice view of the bay and in the spring, I imagine, a ton of birds!”
“This is a great place to take your dogs for a nice walk and allow them to really get some exercise.”
“Check the tides because if it's low, it's really muddy.”
“Trails are maintained (more so on the Duxbury side than the more wooded Kingston side), but uneven in spots, no major hills.”
Plan your run at Bay Farm Trails
The practical stuff
- AccessOpen 24 hours — no gate to beat, so a 5am or a 10pm run both work
- SurfaceNatural surface — easiest on the joints and the most fun, but expect roots, rocks and mud after rain
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
