Confirmed from Hazel Wolf Wetlands' 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 4 mentions

“Beautiful, tranquil hiking spot but watch for widow makers especially after windstorms.”

🌾 quiet & peaceful 7 mentions

“The trail starts in a Reid’s tail area, but once you get to the loop, it is quiet without road noise and you’ll just hear bird song and bull frogs.”

Beaver dam is at the lake. Awesome place to have small walk. Geese, ducks, salamanders etc., to see by the lake.

★★★★★ — Rustam , Apr 2022

Easy hike that will offer vastly different viewing experience depending on the season. Well hidden & it needs to stay that way!

★★★★★ — Tom , Jan 2022

Beautiful, tranquil hiking spot but watch for widow makers especially after windstorms.

★★★★★ — Stephanie , Jan 2019

Very good hike to do with family and friends. There is a long trail, and dogs are allowed as long as they are on a leash. Unfortunately, not all trails are dog-friendly. However in front of each trail, it spefically mentions which trails allow dogs. Some trails even lead to ponds, along with an excellent view.

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.

  • DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
