We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of McCann Family Farm 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 McCann Family Farm
“Easy hike, beautiful scenery, very peaceful.”
“The trails are easy to navigate and can be looped together to create longer or shorter hikes depending on what you're looking for.”
A beautiful place to hike! Plenty of trails and links to other trails as well. Beautiful terrain, well groomed trails in most places. Trails hook up to Whitacre Woods to the east and soapstone Mountain trails to the south. Use an app like AllTrails or Gaia as it can be confusing.
Easy hike, beautiful scenery, very peaceful. Planning on doing this again.
One of my favorite trail systems in the area. There's a little bit of everything for everyone. The trails are easy to navigate and can be looped together to create longer or shorter hikes depending on what you're looking for. There's a variety of terrain and the area is mostly rolling hills with some steeper areas.
Have hiked numerous trails in and adjacent to this property. Even met some care takers one morning out checking for downed trees. Trail was dry but still has leaf covered sections. In those beware of toe catching rock outcropping. Recipe for a fall.
Trail conditions & character
“I hate to be that person, but there are tons of unruly dogs off leashes here, especially in the morning.”
