Confirmed from DNRT Smith Farm'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 DNRT Smith Farm
“A little muddy after a big rain last night but still quite beautiful on a sunny January day”
What a cool place! Entrance has moved and visitors can no longer use the previous parking area/entrance as it is private property. Once you find where you can enter, there are several trails complete with boardwalks and some muddy areas.
Absolutely beautiful. Trails mapped out well. Boards in muddy areas. Little bridges to cross and many littl3 cute trails to explore. Dog friendly!
Absolutely gorgeous trail with scenic viewing tower at the end! Worth the walk to the viewing platform because the view is just breathtaking! Come here at sunset and watch the sunset over the horizon!
Walk out to the overlook and learn about how they are trying to return this marsh to it's natural state
