Confirmed from Milford Mill Gwynn Falls Trail'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.
Little 1-mile loop trail for kids and pets, featuring a stream and muddy spots.
What runners say about Milford Mill Gwynn Falls Trail
“This is a simple clean one mile trail.”
“I like the trail because it is quiet and serene when not a lot of people are out.”
Our family had fun at this trail. My daughter's opinion: You should go there it's fun!
I like the trail because it is quiet and serene when not a lot of people are out. My husband and I took our most recent walk maybe two to three days after a snow event, so the ground was somewhat snow-covered and one area was standing water and snow, but it remained a nice walk.
One mile asphalted loop alongside creek and small forested area (so running will be in the shade) with a parking lot for about 10 cars.
The trail was clean. Atmosphere was pleasant. Took the grands on a mini nature walk. Nice!
