Confirmed from High Acres Nature Area'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.
What runners say about High Acres Nature Area
Second time been there. This time (May 10) less muddy. The few spots down by the pond was very muddy the first time I was here (March) and again today. So, the trails along the ponds could use some boardwalks to help with this problem.
Very great area to hike through and I see many fishers there so I would recommend going through!
Nice place for some short trail hiking just be wary of the bugs in the summer time. Right across from the High Acres Landfill.
Trail conditions & character
“Nice views, well maintained flat for the most part.”
