Confirmed from Boughton 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.
What runners say about Boughton Park
“Wonderful quite park that offers scenic views of the two ponds, hardwoods, and standing pines.”
“Peaceful place to sit and enjoy the quiet or hike, fish, etc.”
Well to start with ,I did not know this was a private park for Bloomfield & Victor residents with permit! I just read another review stating this! Oops! Well,We were lucky enough to not have anyone approach us while We were there! We brought our dog & hiked the well marked moderate trail.
Beautiful park, worth a visit. From the Town of Victor website:Located in the Town of East Bloomfield, Boughton Park has joint ownership by the Towns of Victor, East Bloomfield, and West Bloomfield. The park consists of ponds (56 acres), trails and wooded areas. It is a popular place for canoeing, kayaking and fishing.
A very tranquil park with miles of trails and woods that circumvent two large ponds. There's a kayak and boat launch for convenient access to the water. Picnic areas with a large pavilion are available to enjoy a meal. There's even a small book exchange koisk.
Wonderful quite park that offers scenic views of the two ponds, hardwoods, and standing pines. Pet friendly but please make sure your pet is friendly. Great place for off leash walks when you are alone.

“Some trails(blue) can be a little muddy during the wet season, but are still worth the escape.”
