Confirmed from Blydenburgh 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.
Picturesque park featuring a lake and a hiking trail alongside a dog run and boat rentals.

I hiked all the way around the pond and it was great. 6.2 miles (exactly 10K). Not a ton of elevation change. Beautiful views.
Beautiful. The entrance is unassuming, however once you take a path (designed for horses so watch the *poop* you can make your way towards the lake and enjoy watching over 30 swans and geese hanging out!
A very busy Park with wonderful trails, a huge dog park, boat rentals, unfortunately not available in October, and lots of friendly people!
Very nice park love ro hike there with my family occasionally come across a real weirdo on the trails but other then that good to go
