Confirmed from Old Creek 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 Old Creek Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (8 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

One of my favorite trails in Fremont! Quiet and serene beauty. Has good bike and walking trails ranging from 1 mile to a longer 5/10 mile loop options!

★★★★★ — Dip , Sep 2025

Great trail and getting close to nature. Always keep an eye out for those animals already living there. We spotted rabbits, deers, fox. The coyotes active hours are afternoons and sunsets. Please be careful and wary of them.
