Confirmed from Mount Marquette Loop'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 Mount Marquette Loop
“Great trail with great views.”
This a well worn trail around Mount Marquette. It starts off easy and wide but becomes more difficult as you go on. Surprisingly in a few spots it’s easy to get off on the wrong trail — the little blue signs all over but missing at a few crucial intersections. We used AllTrails navigation and got through ok.
Awesome view. The walk is tough, I mean really tough starting at the bottom
There is a nice walking, biking trail. Beautiful benchs to rest on. A good hour walk.
Great hike, well marked path. Some cross trails so having map downloaded on All Trails is smart.
