Confirmed from Quinsigamond State Park- Regatta Point'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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 7 mentions

“Regata is a beautiful clean peaceful place with ample parking, beautiful lake with small beach area for swimming, boat rentals, grills etc.”

It was very crowded for May but still great to walk the loop. The beach is pretty busy now!

Safe place for kids to go for a walk - Plane spotting at Worcester Airport near the airport

★★★★★ — Inside , Sep 2025

A great park to meet and have barbecues, they also rent boats to walk and enjoy the lake.

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.

🅿️ Trailhead parking 13 mentions

“Nice area but parking lot was full and there were only three people around so I think it was employees of UMass Memorial Hospital using the parking”
