Confirmed from Crescent Trail Indian Hill Trailhead'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.
Tree-lined trail along a hilly course featuring a pond and open fields.
What runners say about Crescent Trail Indian Hill Trailhead
“Really nice, beautiful trail.”
“In the shady spots, still some ice and snow.”
If you enjoy of a peaceful place full of green, THIS IS THE PLACE !. I took 4 hours in my route. In the middle of the silence, you can have a time for meditation and connection with the nature. Don't harm your walking with music, Nature give it to you all the music you need.
Another section of the Crescent Trail. This is a nice network of trails. I would recommend a map from the Association website if you are unfamiliar with the area. Even though you're not far from civilization, I did meet 2 hiking groups not sure where they were or how to get back to trailhead. 10 essentials people😊.
Great trails! There are miles of challenging trails! There are some open spaces on the trail. We went a couple days ago (December 15th) and it was icy in many spots, but was not a deal breaker. We just moved to this area and I can't wait to see what these trails look like with full vegetation!
Really nice, beautiful trail. It is a little icy this time of year at the parking area and first going up the trail, but gets better after about 10 minutes. Spent 3 hours back here exploring. Beautiful trees, fields, somewhat moderate trails, a pond, creeks, horse farm, not bad.
