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 Illahee to Manette trailhead
Nice easy hiking trail, but without GPS easy to get lost in. Most connecting trails didn't have names pointing out each trail. Side note, someone put googly eyes on a at least 2 trees on the trail, funny to run across!
Excellent place to go get lost in for a few miles. Even saw a hawk on a branch within 10 feet! Dog approved. Please keep em on a leash 😃!
I love these trails. Low impact, well-manicured trails. I highly recommend going to their website and printing out the map of the trails with the trail marker numbers. This will help you immensely without having to use GPS or Google maps.
