Confirmed from Connelly Creek Trail'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 Connelly Creek Trail
It was more than “simply ight” but it is a little short and was interrupted by construction and time on a busy road. Lovely trees and nice scenery. Perfect for a quick woods walk but not a hike or long walking trail.
This is a very pleasant trail. One often shares it with local high school and college students who are well behaved and respectful.
I am always traveling from 32nd on my boke and this sweet short trail.is right ny home so I love it!
