Confirmed from Mims 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.
What runners say about Mims Trail
“I go here everday and do the loop atleast 4 times a day, I love visiting this trail because it is a very beautiful ~1-mile loop and you almost feel like you are in a jungle.”
Easy paths with plenty of elevation changes. The loop is maybe 1.5-2 miles. Very quiet and very green. Not many mosquitos.

Surprisingly lovely walking trail walk with nice elevation change perfect for a fully shaded walk through the woods.
Great scenery, great historical references, a modest challenge for a walking path.
