Confirmed from Martin Wildlife Refuge'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 Martin Wildlife Refuge
I have driven by the Martin Wildlife Refuge for years and years and finally today I stopped to walk through the 35 acre refuge. It was mid-November and most of the leaves had fallen and completely covered the paths. I found the refuge very calming and beautiful.
Small loop... private for sure with space for 4 to 5 cars. Could be a good dog walk loop... was a little buggy in July
Trail conditions & character
