Confirmed from Hanover Greenway'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 Hanover Greenway

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (6 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Beautiful scenery and tons of wildlife. The best place to park near the trailhead is on the street near 969 Circuit St in Hanover. The trailhead is just before the white house at 969. Down what looks like someone’s dirt driveway. The entrance is at the tree line .

★★★★★ — David , Apr 2026

Such an amazing trail system! I love the peaceful river an wide accessible trail. Perfect spot for a run or to walk your dog. Parking can be a bit tough, but you can find parking in the neighborhood surrounding the trailhead.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
