Confirmed from Brick Reservoir'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.
Clean, serene natural space with a 1.6-mile loop for walking and jogging.

Absolutely amazing place to walk, jog, run or just to sit and enjoy the beauty. Very, very relaxing !!! It is kept up very well. They even have stations we are there are coolers of freezing cold water!! Thank you brick Township for making such a beautiful and serene area !!!! It is greatly appreciated!!!!
Beautiful, simple 1.65 mile lap around a reservoir. Usually not too crowded. Only downside would be that there are often a lot of geese from late spring to early fall. They usually mind their own business but can sometimes stay on the path. (And their poop will be everywhere 😮)
Beutifull 1.5 mile walk around the resivore. They have benches along the whole walk. and water at 2 points. I Definitely will be going back...
