Confirmed from Dorr Run-Sycamore 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.

★★★★★ — Gale , Jun 2018

Dorr Run-Sycamore Trailhead is a great trailhead for accessing the Wayne National Forest OHV Trails system. This is probably the easiest trailhead to access from Rt. 33. There is plenty of parking for riders and some campers.

★★★★★ — David , May 2023

Easy access to the trail, minutes from the main road. Not to busy, No loading ramp but we bring our own anyways! ✌️

★★★★★ — Dylan , Jul 2024

These trails and accessible and well-maintained. The trails are color-coded and very well marked, based on name and color. There are a few places in which the trail is very, very narrow, so I would recommend riders are careful and extra cautious about oncoming traffic.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
