Confirmed from Blue Marsh Trail-Spring Creek'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.
What runners say about Blue Marsh Trail-Spring Creek
“Such a beautiful trail for hiking, horseback riding, etc.”
This is a great hike with few fellow hikers. A trail that looks like a NY sidewalk is less than inviting. This trail is great for mountain biking, horse riding, or whatever suits your fancy. I suspect ATVs are not quite so welcome, but did not take note of a sign stating this.
Great access to the back end of the lake (Fox Lake) and the no wake area if you prefer seeing old macadam rds and trees as opposed to lake shore. .No loop so you cover the same ground twice but the parking lot is right off Brownsville Rd.
Nice trail, little rough in places. Alot of it is old paved roadway. I hiked in about 3 miles pushing a babu stroller not meant for off road and didn't have any issues
I was there to stock trout into stream. Took a few moments to admire the beauty of nature. Take a hike enjoy the outdoors.
