We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Hike Trail yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Hike Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (5 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Ana’s Trail (Trail of Tears) via Monk’s Vertigo Ridge and Thousand Steps Trail. I believe the trail is about two miles round trip. This trail is part of the Franklin Mountains State Park. El sendero de Ana (Sendero de las Lágrimas) a través de Monk's Vertigo Ridge y el sendero de Thousand Steps.
