Confirmed from Middletown Valley Park'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 Middletown Valley Park
Nice walking trail and wildlife preserve. Dog bags at the entry point, and dogs are welcome on a leash. Trails are not steep, and there's plenty of them. There is plenty of off-street parking, although it can be a little dark in the late evening. Some Gravel pathways so can be navigated in winter.
Great little park to dart around on a cross country trail bike! Fun little off the main path runs behind bjs and shaws supermarket.
A cute little spot to take a walk or walk your dogs. There are trail markers with information on local birds.
Located in the heart of Middletown astride Bailey Brook before it enters Easton Pond. Had there been a siege of Newport in 1778, British lines would have extended along the western Ridge to 2 mile corner with redoubts above Easton pond at green end.
