Confirmed from Jerome Creek Nature Preserve'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 Jerome Creek Nature Preserve
“Beautiful trail, went early in the morning and it was lovely, the creek is so pretty and there is a beaver dam.”
“We were the only ones here, serene and peaceful”
I really liked the boardwalk, I didn't see any wildlife, a few Red-winged Black birds but not much else.
First time I came here off the beaten path I went in February just to get out but looks like a nice place to walk or run or take your dog. Im sure once tge grass grows would be even nicer with the large bridge and low water flowing.
Beautiful trail, went early in the morning and it was lovely, the creek is so pretty and there is a beaver dam. The only drawback was lots of mosquitoes. Great place to take an easy peaceful walk
Amazing nature preserve with beautiful trails. Underutilized and a great experience. We were the only ones here, serene and peaceful
