We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Deer Park Hiking Trails 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 Deer Park Hiking Trails

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (5 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

The community built these trails out of nothing but wonderful woods. Great community project! We call this area the Deer Park. Not in Franklin, sub to the north is called Olde Franklin, it's in Farm Hills, owned in tandem with Franklin Fairway sub.

★★★★★ — Steve , Mar 2023

These are some decent trails to hike or run on. Someone or some group has done a nice job upkeeping them. They are also nice as a shortcut to get from A to B instead of going all of the way around the sub.

★★★★☆ — Shane , Mar 2024

Very good place to hike and get lost in. There are always new areas to discover that has not been renovated.
