We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Long Leaf Treasure Forest 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 Long Leaf Treasure Forest

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (17 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

I like that it's not all perfect and manicured and covered in signs like some nature walks. This trail feels like it actually belongs to nature.

★★★★★ — Victoria , Dec 2023

One of my favorite spots all kinds of flowers pop up throughout the year along with mushrooms. Nice little walk through the pine forest as well. Located beside the botanical gardens, it's an easy walk through some nature for relaxing afternoon after work or on your lunch break.

★★★★★ — Ryan , Apr 2025

Wonderful hiking trails and a great place for bird watching. My favorite place to see Indigo buntings, Eagles, Owls, Hawks, Turtles, Woodpeckers oh and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks.

★★★★★ — Anne , Mar 2024

A wonderful trail, and beautiful woods! My wife and I visited in mid October, and there were tons of wildflowers in bloom! You could tell other species had just peaked, so a tad earlier would probably have been ideal. Goldenrod, aster, and blazing star make for quite a colorful stroll!
