Confirmed from Chehalem Glenn & Gettman Loops' 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.
Looping hiking area amid serene woods and hills, connected to a golf course.
What runners say about Chehalem Glenn & Gettman Loops
“Great walking trail, well maintained very well, even im the wet winter months.”
“Nice trail gets a bit busy during the day, part of the trail goes down into a beautiful wooden area I love walking through.”
“I'd classify it as a pretty easy trail.”
This a nice 1.6 mile walk just minutes from hwy 99 and just across from the Newberg PCC campus. A great trail for a quick break from the hustle and bustle of the city. The trail takes you around the golf course, through a wooded area with the pleasant sounds of a good sized stream.
Nice walking path around back 9 of Chehalem Glenn golf course Perfect for even small children and nature lovers. Parking available at driving range.
The Gettman Loop, on the south side of the road, is fairly well marked. It seems to be a one-way loop (counterclockwise) since if you go the other direction you'll encounter signs telling you to keep out unless you are a patron of the golf course. I'd classify it as a pretty easy trail.
Solid one mile walking/jogging path around the perimeter of Chehalem Glenn Golf Course. The path is paved or gravel most of the way, hugging the course one minute, dipping into the woods the next. Minimal elevation gain/loss. Park at the driving range and follow the cart path south to pick up the trail.
