Confirmed from Pittman Orchard McDade Trail Access' 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.

“Easy hike, pet friendly and absolutely serene and beautiful!”

Nice maintained bike/jogging trail. We started at Pittman Orchard and headed towards Milford beach. It's mostly level, but there are a couple of hills ( need to work on my bike endurance).

★★★★★ — Steve , Oct 2020

Perfect, easy hike that is bicycle and dog friendly. This is a very peaceful trail.

★★★★★ — K , Apr 2022

Never-ending paths that are well maintained and flat. The path we took meanders with gentle turns that give a view of the Delaware River on one side and sheer rocky cliffs on the other. Absolutely beautiful and peaceful any time of the day.

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.
