Confirmed from Hibernia Park Rim 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.

“It's a beautiful place to take a relatively easy hike.”

It's a beautiful place to take a relatively easy hike. The scene along the river is peaceful, and we entertained ourselves by watching a gray heron that seemed to enjoy posing for the camera. My only complaint is that according to all trails this is a loop and we never figured out where we were supposed to loop around.

★★★★★ — Don , Nov 2024

Nice scenic trail for biking, walking or horse riding. Follows along side rock strewn stream .

★★★★★ — Dave , Oct 2022

This is such a great spot for a spirited run or just a relaxing walk along the river. It's never really that crowded, the parking is very convenient. Never had any issues on the trail. It's well maintained, relatively flat and towards the end you'll find a cute little turtle pond...

★★★★★ — Michael , Aug 2023

Great place to walk by yourself or dog walking. Beautiful scenery as you stroll, paths, or wide enough where you're not walking into other as they walk/jogging too. My only complaint is, wish they had dog waste containers at major intersection or start points, not a fan of taking poop bags on ride back home.

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.
