Confirmed from Bortons Mill Trails' 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 Bortons Mill Trails

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (63 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 7 mentions

“But people must remember to clean up after their pets- that was the biggest disappointment.”

🌳 shaded & cool 3 mentions

“The area was mostly tree covered so while I didn't escape the humidity, it did keep me out of the sun.”

🪧 well-marked 3 mentions

“The trails are well marked and covered with wood chips, which helps cut down on mud.”

🐕 dog-walking favorite 4 mentions

“Great place for hiking, biking or dog walking.”

Best covert dog walking park in Cherry Hill. The bunnies and squirrels can rest easy now that their nemesis, Bella has pasted. RIP Bella!

★★★★★ — Chadd , Dec 2019

Fun hiking trails. All Trails maps have many twists and turns. Quite damp after heavy rains. Level and fun place for walks, hikes and taking the dog out. Great place for the littles to run about. CAUTION : much poison ivy

★★★★☆ — Ktol , May 2023

Trails are clean and well delineated. Nice quiet place for a walk to enjoy fresh air. Easily seen from the major road that passes by it. As long as there are no sporting events, this place should have ample parking. Dog owners bring their dogs here unleashed to go through the trails.

★★★★★ — Boom , Oct 2021

Great place for hiking, biking or dog walking. Kind of a maze of trails. (It's not real big but trails are still great.) By late summer It's ready for some do goober to clip the prickly vines which can scratch you up or tangle your clothes. I keep forgetting my clippers...

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.
