Confirmed from Benedict Farm Park's 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.
Spacious park dedicated to recreation and wildlife-viewing with a playground and river access.
What runners say about Benedict Farm Park
“It was well maintained, large pavilion to eat, fenced in play ground and decent bathrooms.”
“Plenty of picnic tables under the pavilion and beautiful River winding by.”
“Nice peaceful park with picnic tables next to Wallkill River.”
We've been coming here for the past several weekends for our son's rec soccer seasonal tournament. It's clean and it's beautiful. The park hosts many events but parking is somewhat limited, especially for large events like multi-game soccer schedules.
Such a peaceful park. River views and kids park, walking trails, dog friendly.
