Confirmed from Montville Walking 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 Montville Walking Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (3 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

What a perfect example of a well-executed, small trail. In about 20 minutes, you'll get a little bit of rolling trail, go through a boulder field, have a few lookouts to see waterfowl on the cove, and then come across a gorgeous waterfall - which you would never even know existed.

★★★★★ — Josh , Mar 2025

This is a really nice loop trail. Good location with some beautiful views of the water and a lot of great bridges over the streams that run across the trail. Some great big boulders perfect for climbing on top! Trail was well traveled in the snow and clearly marked, though parking lot was not shoveled.

★★★★★ — Sophia , Feb 2026

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.
