Confirmed from Muscoot Reservoir Recreation Area'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 Muscoot Reservoir Recreation Area
During the shutdown it became my walking place. Either side of the reservoir is beautiful and peaceful. On the paved road is a short dead end walk (15-20 min) the boaters' unpaved road on the route next to and just past the Goldens bridge Train s.
