Confirmed from MT Tom Via New England 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 MT Tom Via New England 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.

Parking lot for this area then you go across the street and head up to mount time it will be very Rocky from the start definitely moderate to hard height getting up. Once you reach the top you will hike along the edge with many lookout points this is an out and back Trail but can easily turn be turned into a loop

★★★★★ — Joan , Feb 2024

this is the place to park to get to the top of Mount Tom, trail was nice, well kept and it was fairly steep incline, I made it to the star in about half an hour from the parking lot

★★★★★ — Dylan , May 2025

Very well maintained trails, clear white trail blazes. Stay on the trail and keep an eye out for snakes!

★★★★★ — Sally , Jul 2025
