Confirmed from Fellsway East'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 Fellsway East
A place where you can hike with your family and friends. Also, you can take a walk around the reservoir with your pets if you want to get fun.
Fellsway East is one of my favorite locations to hike. There are many trails and paths of varied difficulties. Walking around the reservoir is an easy and pleasant experience while climbing the Pinnacle Rock and Eagle Rock can be more grueling. I have always found parking there.
Definitely one of the best parks in the area! There’s a beautiful pond/lake where the trail loops around so you can look at while walking. There are green spaces for picnics as well multiple branching trails. If you like either long hikes or scenic routes, I would recommend you visit!
