Confirmed from Farrington Reserve'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.

Nicely paved walking/bike path. It was our first time visiting and we loved it here. We walked a little bit both ways. The one way we walked the waterfalls were so pretty, the beautiful tall trees that practically hug the pathway.

★★★★★ — Lisa , Jan 2023

Very nice park for walking, running, biking, and geocaching. Seems like a good place to access to the river as well. There is a nice view of a waterfall across the road from the parking lot. Be cautious crossing the road, traffic does not stop or slow down for the cross walk.

★★★★★ — Michael , Dec 2018

Beautiful area to take a short walk and even see an eagle. The water is very clear in quite a few areas and you'll be able to see plenty of crayfish and frogs.

★★★★★ — B , Sep 2022

Well from what I was able to see of it, I enjoyed it. I didn't make it all the way through b/c my camera died 😥 however, I did get some awesome shots. I would have loved to have my bike today. It's an awesome trail for walking or riding. They was quite a few people here today so I take it this trail is very popular.

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.
