Confirmed from Leach Road Trailhead'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 Leach Road Trailhead
Great long trail. What I didn’t like was the fact that I had to cross a lot of streets, too many streets, some busy and high speed streets at that (for example 45+ mps). Lots of gravel walking too in some areas. Felt kinda scary walking alone in some areas. Might want to buddy up.
OK now, first I should say that I am a beginner bike rider. This trail was good for the 1st two miles before age and conditioning cought up with me but I still love this trail and look forward to more rides.
