Confirmed from Erlands Point Preserve'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 Erlands Point Preserve

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (21 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

They have a couple of trails we walk and a pond that has beavers, a couple of ducks and fish if you are lucky enough to see the beavers that is very cool. My grandkids love coming here and ending it with a trip to the creek to have a little water fun.

★★★★★ — Cheryl , Jul 2022

The trails are decent, but the best part is the open area at the front. Great place to birdwatch or have a picnic.

★★★★☆ — Connor , May 2022

Nice piece of God's creation, includes Chico Creek, pond, meadow, and walking trails.

★★★★☆ — Laurie , Nov 2019

It definitely was an adventure walking through the unknown wood trails

★★★★☆ — Deana , Jul 2021
