Confirmed from Pilfershire Town 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 Pilfershire Town Trail
“Well marked trail about 100 from small parking lot on other side of the street.”
Relatively easy trail with no people! It's marked as westleadge trail on google maps. You can park across the road from this marking. Walk north west via the road for 100m and you will see a driveway to your left. Turn to this driveway. Almost immediately you will see the trailhead.
Well marked trail about 100 from small parking lot on other side of the street. A lot of stone walls along the travels. About 600 feet of climbing for the entire trail but nothing too strenuous. A pair of great waterfalls for good measure.
