Confirmed from Pigeon Creek Nature 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.

“Well maintained, dog friendly and nice parking.”
Very nice! Make sure you also walk the Maack farm and Schoolhouse trails across the street, up the hill. Now open daylight hours.
Short, easy hike through a quiet area. The trails are easy to follow and well laid out.
Love this trails. It's a good walk with great scenery. There's a whole area dedicated to a pollinator garden, a little trail next to a stream, and a tennis court! The park is divided into 2 areas pretty much by Maack Rd.
Beautiful location with lots of wildlife. Nicely placed benches along the path. We plan to visit again soon.
Trail conditions & character
“Beautiful little trail that goes along a creek.”
“The side where the parking is leads to the creek trail and the side across the road leads to the tennis courts and much more open trails.”
