We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Meadow Land 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.

“Love this place, great for jogging, and great view on my work out.”

A Go-To for me when I am not driving far. Trees, trail around the cornfield. River on one side and a view of Miss Porter’s school from behind. Lots of birds and ducks.

This is a beautiful place to walk. Many fond memories here. Great in the Fall.

★★★★★ — Eric , Nov 2019

Absolutely amazing little gem in the Farmington area. Nice little trail by the river, leading to the boat house and more trails. Great for running, hiking, bird watching

★★★★★ — Gleb , Aug 2019

Great place to walk, enjoy the views of the Farmington and Pequabuck rivers as well as various wildlife.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
