Confirmed from Gitts Run Road Trailhead Hanover Trolley Trail'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 Gitts Run Road Trailhead Hanover Trolley Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (1 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

As a runner, I love the trail! But...I hate that people have stopped picking up after their dogs. There is dog excrement the full length of the trail despite signs at the entrances informing pet owners of the need to pick up after their pets. It's pretty frustrating.
