Confirmed from Hickory Glen 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.
Large park featuring a playground, hiking trails and baseball fields, as well as a mountain biking track.
What runners say about Hickory Glen Park
“Great local park with well maintained mountain bike trail and great baseball fields”
“An absolutely gorgeous park with fabulous cycling, mountain biking and hiking trails.”
“Well marked and easy to navigate trail system that crosses the paved bike path throughout the park.”
Clean, well maintained fields and trails. Bathrooms available. Concessions and food trucks on the weekends. Gorgeous setting.
I visited for the Mt Bike trails.. Well marked and easy to navigate trail system that crosses the paved bike path throughout the park. I'd rate this trail as beginner to intermediate skill level. Careful where you park your car if the kids are playing baseball. Foul balls are common and you could end up with a dent.
An absolutely gorgeous park with fabulous cycling, mountain biking and hiking trails. I grew up in the area, and know this park very well. Be careful about the bike paths, if you don't know the area you can easily get lost in the beautiful forest! It's not always a bad thing.
Nice MTB trail. Lots of switches but very fun and well maintained trail. We ran right after quite a bit of rain and the trail was still in great shape.
