Confirmed from Hopewell Park / Danville Borough Farm Trail System'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 Hopewell Park / Danville Borough Farm Trail System
“The trails were very well maintained and a lot of fun.”
This place is wonderful. The parking is a bit scarce- I’d say the loose gravel lot just below the start of the trail(s) where I’ve been parking might hold less than a dozen vehicles. However, if you’ve come here to ride, there’s plenty of room for bicycles!
I'm not expert or experienced enough to comment on the technical challenges or extensiveness this park offers vs others, but I'm impressed with the number of (and miles of) accessible, well-maintained easy and moderate trails, as well as the occasional expansive meadow/farm overlooks interspersing hilly wooded terrain.
The amount of trails is impressive! The trails were very well maintained and a lot of fun. The trails were definitely a challenge for us as we are beginners but if you ride within your comfort zone you’ll be fine. We can’t wait to return to ride more of the trails.
Nice little dirt jump set and pump track right near the parking area. Then a bunch of well made and maintained (mainly flowy singletrack)mtb trails in the woods and fields behind the jumps and pump track. I think there >11 miles of trails and more being built.
