Confirmed from Garnet Douglass Baltimore 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 Garnet Douglass Baltimore Trailhead
The park was a very large area with all kinds of options for visitors: scenic overlook views, hiking trails, tennis and basketball courts. There are build in grills on the grounds so it is a great spot for a spring picnic. I would go again.
Holy unexpected hike down hill Prospect Park. No hand holds almost vertical.... Let's call this Leg Day in 15 minutes Nice views
This is a lovely walk to enjoy with wife and pupper on a balmy spring day :) theres a tree blocking part od the trail and it's fun to jump over
