Confirmed from Montour Trail - Beaver Grade Trailhead'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.

★★★★★ — Satish , May 2025

I like to start my walk/runs from this location. Good parking and it's not too far from my home. Traveling North (from the parking lot facing the trail, go right) you can get a good distance before running into a road crossing which is nice. Highly recommend.

★★★★★ — David , Jul 2025

One of the better stretches of the northern part of the Montour Trail. Access is good with bathroom facilities and you have the plenty of trail in both directions to enjoy. It's a about 4 miles to the end of the trail in Coraopolis from this point.

★★★★★ — Josh , Aug 2022

Such a fun experience. Feels safe leaving your cat parked in this parking lot where a few other businesses are. Trail, always a great time!

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.
