Confirmed from NBRT Wolf Summit Trailhead'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.

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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 3 mentions

“It is a very well kept trail in a beautiful area!”

To me it seems okay, but my wife doesn't agree since all the trail are just next to the highway and you are walking behind peoples backyard. There are some part that are so muddy and you have to find a way to walk through.

★★★★☆ — Kriss , Mar 2019

There is parking for several vehicles at this trailhead. The North Bend Rail Trail is currently 70+ miles long, stretching from Wolf Summit near Clarksburg, WV to Parkersburg, WV. Eventually, it will be extended into Clarksburg.

★★★★★ — Steve , Jun 2026

Rode from there to Greenwood 28 miles enjoyed the tunnels and scenery ❤️

★★★★★ — Larry , Sep 2024

The first part of this trail is next to a very busy highway, so it's a bit noisy. Still, it was a beautiful walk.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
