We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Beechwood Trail-Latta Nature Preserve 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.

Latta is one of my go to spots. Lots of various trails and are always in great shape, it's so beautiful and peaceful. Lots of fun things to do..
First time on these trails. Walked the Hill Trail to the Cove Trail. Moderate terrain until you get close to the Catawba River. The terrain is very rocky. Trails are well marked. I will come back.
Well maintained trail with beautiful scenery and a peaceful flow that makes the walk feel effortless. Clear paths, natural shade, and quiet surroundings create a perfect balance between exercise and relaxation. Great spot to unplug, move your body, and reset your mind.
Such a beautiful and quiet place to walk and disconnect for a few hours! Clean and friendly, walks are not hard at all and enjoyable for all ages
