Confirmed from Booth Pond Conservation Area Trailhead'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 Booth Pond Conservation Area Trailhead

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (15 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

The area is nice, the scenery is pretty but their is a sewage treatment plant very close by and the scent was very noticeable. If you are familiar with the aroma from the sewage plant on Cumberland Hill Rd, it smells about the same.

★★★★☆ — Tammy , Aug 2020

Short hike. Quite a bit of mud right now. Some trails with fairly steep hills

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
