Confirmed from Hibernia County Park'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.
Vast park with numerous hiking trails, plus fishing ponds and picnic tables.
What runners say about Hibernia County Park
“Restrooms were super clean, wild berries on the trails, just a really fun place to take the kids and explore!”
“Some of the hiking trails (might as well be service roads) lead to great spots with handicapped parking and beautiful views of the lake.”
“If you drive around near chambers lake you’ll find this wonderful quiet trail that hardly anyone frequents.”
“The park boasts a variety of trails, catering to all levels of hikers.”
One of my favorite places to hike or just to sit and decompress in nature. If you drive around near chambers lake you’ll find this wonderful quiet trail that hardly anyone frequents. The views are amazing and lots of Jasper and quartz crystals can be found too.
Great park for kids and families. Nice long trail down to the water. Two great playgrounds. Hiking trails. Picnic area. Camp ground. Overall great experience. 10 out of 10 will visit again.
Stunner of a park. Well maintained with beautiful manicured hiking trails throughout. There is access to fishing, boating, biking, birding and camping. Picnicking, youth fields and playgrounds is also available.
Nice park with trails, play ground, camping area, a lake for fishing and boating, historic mansion, childs fishing pond, restrooms, live bait and many labled trees. Very few people midweek as camping is only open on the weekends. Hibernia Mansion has tours on Sundays.
