Confirmed from Campbellton Creek Nature 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 Campbellton Creek Nature Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (17 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Came expecting a 10 minute loop on a gravel path but was pleasantly surprised by an hour excursion on a well winding path through a much wilder patch of woods than I was imagining. It even has a community garden and beehives!

★★★★☆ — Adam , May 2022

I love this park! The trails vary in distances. You can stroll and see the garden and beehives. You can take a 1.5 mule or 3 mile. (my pedometer) hike seeing wild ferns and nature. A nice map in front and marked trees would make it easier to identify the paths

★★★★☆ — Yvette , Jul 2022

As soon as we get to the to park and looked at the garden. It started pouring down raining. We are going to try it again when it’s dry. We came back the following week and walked the trail. Please make sure you have some insect repellent on you before you go to the park because we got torn up By the mosquitoes.

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.
