Confirmed from Murphy Springs Park'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 Murphy Springs Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (33 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Kids love walking around in circles here. We even got to see some cows mooing over the fence one day.

★★★★☆ — Cristina , Jan 2021

I have to say it's probably one of the best views I have experienced in Morgan Hill
