Confirmed from George B. B. Wright Reservation'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 George B. B. Wright Reservation
“A short, well marked loop trail in the midst of a suburban area; little boardwalks throughout, but be careful of these on damp days.”
A short, but well marked and maintained trail in the neighborhood!! I like it !!
Nice, quiet, mile-long trail tucked in a neighborhood. Minimally traveled, former horticulturalist property - a few varitieties remain making it an interesting little place.
A nice, quiet trail. I came here with my dog for a short hike. I would give five stars, except the place is crawling with ticks (as of April 2021). After the hike, I had to spend several hours removing 30+ deer ticks from myself and my fluffy collie.
A short, well marked loop trail in the midst of a suburban area; little boardwalks throughout, but be careful of these on damp days. An easy walk; I completed the loop and ended up with just under 4000 steps.
