Confirmed from Hewitt's pond reserve'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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“Very beautiful pond with trail surprisingly extensive trails in the back portion that lead uphill to more beautiful scenery.”

Very beautiful pond with trail surprisingly extensive trails in the back portion that lead uphill to more beautiful scenery. As for fishing I have seen native fish such as bass, bluegill, pickerel, and bullhead catfish. Great for fishing or photography with nice benches to sit on in the waters edge.

★★★★☆ — Andrew , Jul 2018

Lovely place for a quick walk or to take the kids fishing. Short hike on well marked trails or sit by the pond on some of the benches. There are plenty of places for shore fishing and lots of panfish to try to catch.
