Confirmed from Medford Fish and Wildlife Management Area'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 Medford Fish and Wildlife Management Area

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (54 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Nice place to walk around in nature. Lots of birds around and I saw some chipmunks, too. I'm not entirely sure where all the paths go because there are a bunch that veer off in different directions all the time.

★★★★☆ — Julianne , Feb 2020
