Confirmed from Paul Boorman Trail Highway 80 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.

What runners say about Paul Boorman Trail Highway 80 Trailhead

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (50 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Great trail for walking and running. The exercise equipment along the trail is very useful for an all round workout.

★★★★★ — Earle , Dec 2023

Great trail! Mostly shaded. About 3 miles long. Waterfountains at either end, with a restroom about a mile in.

★★★★★ — Jimmy , Jun 2020

Nice flat trail to jog or walk with a small/large dog park at the end of it. good 3 miles

★★★★☆ — Noe , Mar 2015

I love this trail. I rode it the first time in 1981 when it was the McCann trail. It is a place to find true peace and freedom.

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.
