Confirmed from North Franklin Township Park and Fitness 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 North Franklin Township Park and Fitness Trail
“It is fun a clean area and has a nice trail with fun exercise stations.”
Decent trail. Shorter than what they claim online. It's less than a mile if you do one loop. I did 2.5 loops and it was 1.48 miles. But we'll maintained and super close to my house so I'll be visiting frequently!
It is fun a clean area and has a nice trail with fun exercise stations. Not usually crowded a place to relax in peace
Nice trail and a solid playground. 4 different slides, some monkey bars, a tube tunnel, some different climbing options, and a few interactive spinning things. Good mulch on the ground, picnic benches under a pavilion and a few other metal benches around the jungle gym.
Very nice park and trail away from the busy city of Washington. A well maintained trail and park!
