We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Deer Run Trail 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 Run Trail
One of the many wonderful trails by the Kensington Nature Center. You'll never know what you'll find! Just watch where you step; the trail gets icy during the winter.
Being that this trail is the gateway to all of the others in the eastern half of the Nature Center, it's the busiest by far. Because of that, the birds that will land in a person's hand seem to be most numerous here.
Beautiful trail. We stopped by spontaneously and went for a walk. A few hours later, we had to force ourselves to go back because it was getting late. It was really nice and relaxing. We will definitely come back!
