We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Pumpkin Ground Trail Head yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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 Pumpkin Ground Trail Head
“Had a blast exploring the many well marked trails here.”
Had a blast exploring the many well marked trails here. Love Roosevelt Woods!
We hiked it today. It is a pretty easy walk that took us about one hour and fifteen minutes. The trail is well marked not busy at all. Only saw three people. Not muddy at all. We could have done a slightly longer or shorter walk if we wanted but not by much
I thought the trail is great for beginners and it is marked very well I will do it again especially when it is hot it is all shaded
Great trail for Stratford residents, won't get lost and is beautiful during the summer
