Confirmed from Farrell's Marsh North 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 Farrell's Marsh North Trailhead
“Not very large, parking is minimal, but the trails were well maintained for the most part.”
Small parking area can fit about three cars and more long the neighborhood street. The entrance quickly opens up to several differnt trails after walking about 500m. Great looping trails with plenty of access to several parts of the marsh and wildlife. Easy place for kids to explore!
Great little park where you least expect it. Beautiful all year round. The trails are well-maintained, it has a wide variety of plantlife as well as birds.
Love the park. The parking is a bit tight but each entrance has several spots. Nice walking paths. Clean park.
It's a simple marsh area. Not very large, parking is minimal, but the trails were well maintained for the most part. There was one small section that was under water.
