We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Colchester Spur yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Colchester Spur
Met here with 2 girl friends for our Fun Walk/Talk morning event. The weather was so cold and windy, but who cares? The sun was shining, the trail was clear.. a great way to start our day!!
