Confirmed from Evansburg Skippack 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.
What runners say about Evansburg Skippack Trailhead
“There are a lot of ups and downs but it is a very beautiful place to hike”
The Skippack Creek Trail runs basically from the Germantown Pike to the Skippack Pike, following along the creek and back again. Shown in pictures below: The trail entrance from the Pines parking area in the main section of the park (photo 1). Entrance near the park office (photo 2). Entrance off Kratz Road (photo 3).
I love this trail. It is so beautiful down by the creek. So many trees had fallen over onto the trail when I was there the other day. We felt safe the whole time and every family should visit this place.
It's just a trailhead with parking, a community board and a porta-potty. This is not a playground, there is hunting permitted, the trails are not paved. It's great if that's what you're looking for.
I've walked nearly every inch of trail in this park. This section is perfect for dog walking after work.
