Confirmed from Partridge Island 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 Partridge Island Trail
“The trail is really clean and well kept.”
If you're looking for scenery, do NOT come during winter. It is not a long trail either. It is perfect for a dog walk or a quick walk to clear your mind. The trail is really clean and well kept. The board walk could use some fixing in some areas. But I could tell they are slowly working on it!.
I did .75 miles in 25 minutes. An easy hike through the woods to a couple of long boardwalks, which I love. You are surrounded by swamps and wildflowers with a viewing platform and a bench to take it all in. No bugs at this time. Park across the entrance on Heritage Lane.
Small nature spot with a boardwalk going over/through a marsh, somewhat secluded given that this space is off a main road. A nice place for a walk if you’re looking for something quick and not too strenuous. Definitely recommend coming to see this at least once if you’re in the area.
Short trail. As of now it definitely needs maintenance as a few boards are missing and sections are sinking.
