Confirmed from Moody Trails' 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.
Recreational space with hiking and biking paths and playground areas, plus scenic views.
What runners say about Moody Trails
“Hiked the trails and it was a great hike, great view and option for short or long distance hiking/walking/running/biking.”
“Great quiet place to sit in peace and quiet, walk your dogs or just walk the easy trails.”
I've always loved visiting Moody Park. My son loves the playground near the entrance. There's lots of trails to discover. The walk to the top is a good workout with a nice view of Mount Ascutney. Be wary of the wildlife. I've seen black bears there before.
Beautiful hike ! Great views of ascutney Mnt at the top. Fun playground at the base of the trail parking lot
Very nice park with a beautiful flower garden. Playground is always in use. Great hiking, biking and running trails. Free family fun.
It's always clean, nothing is broken on the structure. People walking their dogs are always kind to one another. Parents are actively watching/playing with their kids. There is a Porta potty. There is a borrowing library books box (no idea what it's called).
