Confirmed from Eastland Road 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.
Pet-friendly, boardwalk-laced park featuring a playground and picnic spots, as well as a marsh.

Neat trail with plenty to see. The whole thing feels like Jurassic Park lol! *Cue John Williams
A nice playground with Mastodon bones for the kids. The boardwalk through the marsh is really nice.
Found a new spot for me and my pups to get our daily Walks, I absolutely love to watch little love to walk through this little lake it's quite picturesque and very very very humbling
Not crowded. Very scenic. Table and benches throughout. Outdoor head. Playground for kids. 2.4 miles lake to lake.
