Confirmed from Pleasant Valley Trails And Park'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 Pleasant Valley Trails And Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (64 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

We love this place! The trails are very well maintained and we had A-blast mountain biking on them. There are also hiking trails around the area to which is nice. All of the trails together are about 5 miles but you can also do some additional trails or do things twice for more mileage.

Shh don't let the secret out, this place is awesome. Great for off dog leash and hiking. Cool hill to view sunset and sunrises.

★★★★★ — Ron , Mar 2018

Close to home and has various level of riding ability clearly seperated with a session loop built into each tier. Would love to see more added on , but just happy to have single track near home.

★★★★★ — Alex , Jun 2017

Nice trail but be careful of snakes! We went there after rain and it was muddy, we knew it but snakes scared us!

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.
