Confirmed from Hagan-Burke 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 Hagan-Burke Trail
Love this trail that is alongside wooded areas filled with dozens of birds and wildlife. Deer are spotted frequently to be so close to downtown Carmel.
One of the best trails with appropriate signage at key points. Not too much, and not too little. Even though the highway is near, the noise from it was barely a match for the bird-song heard along the path. One could almost forget that you were in a city...almost.
Great place to walk or ride your bike. Safe for young and older people.
Trail is manicured nicely, a lot of well shaded areas. Smooth fresh pavement on most areas. Needs more places to rest. Perfect for walking, skating and biking
